Have you tried to contact Xcel or Center Point,, They have landlord forms you fill out on line for your tenants,, the service cost is put in tenants name but your also on record for emergencies and notified if a shut off is going to happen..

They'd rather take a week or two of vacancy to get an extra $100 - $200 month/rent on paper. 2) Sometimes there are surprises when tenants move their stuff out, and we don't necessarily want a new tenant moving in the next day.  

In chicago's recent struggles with high violent crime rates Englewood and Austin areas generally emerge as the worst of the worst further deterring quality tenants from wanting to live there.

He was surprised and we got a free Dinner.

I work in Emergency Restoration, so we drive around the city a lot, and the first piece of advice I got was stay away from I-26 south of the city.

I do like that you'll have plenty of reserves after closing for emergencies like having to evict although knowing the type of tenants on the Westside are less likely to be problems then B and C neighborhoods and work you still have to do. $2900 might actually still be a good deal from their eyes but use discretion inheriting tenants using has it's challenges. 

No surprises.

@Jerry Alvey I'm surprised that the company you used to establish the plan did not assist you with this step.

If the numbers work anyone will give you a HELOC and I would be surprised to see significant differences in rates.

Not surprisingly, the average days on market was considerable...
