I am hopeful my RE colleagues locally will be able to bring me a couple of opportunities in the beginning to help me through the waters, at least the first couple times.  

Can anyone recommend a good water sub-metering company for multi-family properties in Pittsburgh?  

Then......stick your toe in the water by helping a mentor with their business.  

Account Closed water is included in HOA but yes I'm paying for electric. 

@Don Harris  this case you posted is a classic  SUB TOO equity skimming case.and why I always say SUB TOO for the seller is extremely dangerous and for beginners with little money and they do this it can get them in hot water like this guy as well.start defaulting on a bunch of SUB toos and you WILL have a problem.. some do it intentially IE get into contract rent house skim rents never pay on first.. knowing they are not on mortgage until bank forecloses them out.

I asked the roofing company at that time if there was anything more I need to do, since the area inside the roof must have got wet due to the rains, and they told me not to worry and to paint the discoloration on the drywall that happened due to the water, after the drywall dries up.

I'm not even including taxes, water/garbage.

This is where the experienced guys who know how to keep their heads above water can make moves that will set them up for a great deal of long term success.

I used a household power washer but I think it might need more than water to remove the grime.  

Hello fellow agents.Can someone please educate me to which form the escrow agent uses at the closing table to report to the IRS, broker commissions?
