I also threw in some repair cost trying to be safe. 

So plan ahead but it can be a good way to get into a deal

I am looking for recommendations on a lawn care company to service the rental properties as well as a handyman to call for repairs/maintenance issues.

I'm not a property inspector; I can't tell if the parking lot has 15 years left in it with minor repairs, or 2.

She moved out on the 29th, I had the unit cleaned as she was still moving her stuff out, made notes of repairs and did the quick ones myself that day. 

This fork is between continuing with my plan to start a windshield repair buisness (rock chips, scratches, long cracks, headlight restoration), or commit to a w2 income at a local Car lube shop.

I came up with a repair estimate of 48K. 

However, I am of the opinion that I would give my tenants a heads up or the chance to fix the issue before hand. 

Any money you put into the rehab can't be included into the purchase price.If you are expecting a decent equity bump then you will need to wait for a 6 month seasoning. why is it that some lenders are saying you cannot include rehab/repair expenditures in purchase/acquisition and cash out without 6 month seasoning, but others are saying yes?

One of the companies we really like is Roofstock, as they appear to do a lot of the legwork for you (finding, what appears to be, decent rental units, along with calculating all of the financial information).My question is, has anyone bought through Roofstock before and looked back to see how accurate the Roofstock calculations were (cash-on-cash, turnover repair costs, cap rate, etc)?
