@Jose QuinonesHow much is the water bill?

The AC unit is only 4 years old and hot water heater is new.

Furniture covers as I said, a couple of food and water bowls, a mat for those as well.We also have cheap towels we bought for around 2 bucks.

Depending on the amenities offered, and many HOAs in my market will also pay water bill, possible cable/internet, pools, hot tub.

The major concerns to me are the roof, the hot water heater, and similar.  

@Landon Lehmann many investors borrow against their primary residence equity to invest.Getting a HELOC can also be the path of least resistance and cheapest.There is risk though, that if you investment results in a loss or lawsuit that you could lose some or all of that money and more (lawsuit).Getting more insurance is typically easier than setting up an LLC and meeting all the requirements to separate your business from your personal assets.What are you doing to source potential flip properties?

High efficiency appliances were utilized including HVAC, light fixtures and water heater.
