This room was not inspected during the move out walk through by my property manager so these items were not discovered until last week.

Haha.I'm composing the list of those interested right now and will email out details in a day or two. 

An yes....I'm learning that I need to document move in/move out condition better...wont le these items be overlooked again...

Unfortunately one cannot charge for emotional support dogs but I like @ Kim Meredith Hampton’s suggestion of requesting, that “thingy” to verify that it is legitimate.I thank you for this post, because, as a result, I am going to modify the #2 section of my lease which is the “RELIANCE ON RENTAL INFORMATION”, details of which are presented below.I love Bigger Pockets for the great information and ideas that come up even when one is not looking.Feel free to adapt and modify the reliance on rental information provided below.Now whether it will hold up in court, that is for an attorney to decide but at the very least it initiates that agreement between me (Agent) and tenants.Cheers!

@Nicholas Aiola Awesome, thank you for the detailed response!

It's obvious that you'll need a new roof and several other big-ticket items in 15 years or so.

Well, actually I guess there is -- anywhere from about 30 minutes to about 30 hours, depending on the details of your trip...Likewise with rehabbing -- it should take you anywhere from about a day to about a year, depending on the details of your project...And much like flying, the goal is to get from point A to point B in as little time as possible, without crashing and burning...

Generally, insurance payouts reduce the basis in the property while the funds spent to make the repairs either increase the basis or might be able to be expensed all at once, depending on the nature of the repair/replacement and total funds spent per item.

Apologies in advance if there's too much detail!

You will get straight forward answers for the areas they can feel comfortable answer your questions.Some items are a matter of interpretation of the law and they will not answer questions related to these areas.
