How should you go about balancing between affordable and enough to cover repairs/cleaning?

Let me know if I can be of assistance as well.

Show your appreciation and next time there’s a problem, maybe they’ll give you some time to fix so you don’t get slammed with emergency repair pricing.

So, we should be able to continue to put money aside for capex, vacancies, and repairs.

Tracy, I've been with HMS National for a little over a year now and they took a little over 6 weeks to replace a broken range AFTER the service rep arrived, inspected, and determined it was beyond repair. 

hello, I have just bought a property that needs a) fumigation (section 1), b) landscape grading to improve drainage, c) crawspace/foundation work to repair some piers and fix sump pump, and d) minor interior remodel and retrofit window. 

I'm looking for a closing attorney in south jersey who can assist me through an assignment after getting the property under contract.

I had repairs at $35K and closings/taxes at $18K.

When they told me how much they wanted, I felt they were a little optimistic with their asking price and their estimated rehab budget, but after a few rounds of negotiating over text, we agreed on a price that was $15k under their original asking.The numbers were:Purchase price: 80kseller repair estimate: 35kARV: 180k to 195kMy hard money lender would only lend up to 65% of the ARV and they chose to go with a conservative number at $175k, so based the 65% rule I had to be all in at $117, so that gave me a budget of $37k. 

The other is much lower but is a fixer upper that would probably require work that would bring the total cost to be $140,000 with the addition of the money to do repairs.
