Those are the items that will kill you in this business if not taken care of up front, especially on a single family. 

@Dane Fossee ,  I agree with @Ben Leybovich - the two items that standout for me is the insurance being high, and the management being low - a good figure is 10%.  

In real estate, you have to know what every line item is or should be, otherwise you risk jumping at a "great deal" that is anything but.

You can also consider these repair items as part of the basis if you sell the home down the road. 

It is so difficult to predict all of those items.  

Once the build and/or remodel is completed, most policies predicate that you have 30-60 days to obtain regular insurance for the premises based on what type of occupancy it is; ie, if you are moving into the property, then you would get an HO (Homeowners policy), if it's a rental, then you would obtain Landlord policy or a Dwelling Policy to actually cover the building (since you own it, but not the contents, since presumably, the tenants should obtain renter's insurance to cover their items).

One item I'm running into is lots of calls, but little to no motivation.

My agent is great, but I also know its ALOT of work for him to put the items needed to have the companies quote it.  

@Chih Pih for item 2 I don't think the seller should have had to do anything.  

I look at the individual items on the credit report.
