@Joseph DiNardi-Mack right that's exactly what the property management mentioned the cost would not cover any maintenance.

I finally decided to ask my renter if they already had window coverings.

In your experience, do successful brokers cover more than one neighborhood?

Most Proformas will at least have a small CapEx reserve shown.In this period of rapidly rising rent growth and low vacancy, a lot of this gets glossed over because property appreciation covers any problems.So, here's what I would suggest.

What if when he finally moves out, there are damages or money owed not entirely covered by the deposit? 

Is payroll covered in management for your on site help?

I'm just trying to cover all my bases.  

First off, there are some seminars and schools that promote note investing. 

None of the houses would have appraised for a high enough price to cover the added 3% an agent would have been paid.

Smelly, but covered in leads!
