Add a cast iron or aluminum fence around the pool for safety and charge rent high enough to include a pool company to maintain...maybe, I do not have a rental with a pool (above is our pool) but I could see it being quite a plus if safe and easy for tenants.

The problem was when they all went bad, there were no safety nets...like there usually are.  

They wanted advise on how to deal with the PM Co as they understandably feared for their personal safety and wanted to move to another part of town.

hi there, I am currently a tenant and am concerned about my units safety.

I always like to plug those in just to have a safety net.

I cant pay more than that if I do my profit margin is razor thin.

It might be inconvenient, but it's not endangering their safety.

From a strict buy and hold for passive rental income i think it is a pass strictly based off these numbers:your rental income is 1850Your listed expenses are 888if you finance this for around 148-150K mortgage going to be paying around 800 a monththats 1,688 leaving you with 162/m cash flow without a property manager(assuming you do the work yourself)**Maybe look to move the utilities onto the renters to increase margins **CASH on Cash is about 4.8% to manage this yourself are razor thin numbers. 

Until you have restored utilities I would not let tenants back into LIVE in the apartments,, no plumbing,, that's gonna be a big Poop problem, and NO electric,, is gonna be a safety hazard and issue,, no smoke detectors..

Inform LL that these issues are a safety concern.
