I have been pre-approved and have saved enough for a down payment (3.5%) utilizing the FHA program.

All utilities grouped together.

We rehabbed two of the mobile homes on the property and added utilities to the lots.

Purchase price: $425,000 Cash invested: $100,000 This is a 6 bedroom, 5 bathroom, 10 acre farm with a barn, pool, hot tub, 1 acre stocked pond, and utility building.

Check utilities if they transfer with the property. 

I keep it simple, so the tenant pays all utilities and property upkeep (lawn care).

And the local utility company won't do things like energize  new panel box or turn on a new HVAC system without seeing the approved permit. 

There are single utilities, which have pro's and con's.

Hey Paul, I am not sure what software you utilize for managing your properties yourself but I would recommend checking Avail out, they will tailor a lease to your state and the laws in your state and provide a guide to the laws of your state.
