What about things like mowing the grass, keeping the common areas cleaned, utilities to common areas, water/sewer/garbage for the building, snow removal (ND after all)?

I have used a lot of carpet cleaning companies in the past.

You may want to see legal assistance in creating a solid one.

Second, my rehab is generally painting and cleaning.

i provide very good/updated/clean homes and i have a hard time finding anyone that will stick around for more than 1 yr. i feel like i have to reduce rent to entice them to stay longer. i dont get it.

As mentioned the purchase price should be peanuts, their option is usually to get something selling it and you prep site, or pay to demolish it and prep site and clean up.

Just curious.Thanks again for your assistance,Steph

Either way, I'll subtract the bill for cleaning the carpet from their deposit.

In order to obtain funding, these borrowers need a lot of assistance in rewriting their documents and even in managing the information.

-economic vacancy rates (real vacancy + non-collectable rent and related income) -turnover costs between tenants (normal ware and tear costs painting, carpet cleaning etc.)I would also echo time tends to be under estimated and very costly.This post is only my personal opinion.
