Then **** hit the fan.

I'm not a huge fan, some decent stuff, but never healthy margins.

All they did was paint over the mold, set up a huge fan in our room, and bring a bucket for the leak.

LOL If you have animals, dogs/cats they have more dander than we usually do.As Steve mentioned, leaving wondos open and running the fan (no heat or air) can cirulate pollen.

Why not just install a ductless system and a couple ceiling fans and vents above the doors.

Frequent prepping of units (paint,cleaning, flooring) will jack up expense ratio, so you'll need to factor this in and be very conservative.* Buildings this size can't afford a full time maintenance and leasing agent, I don't think.

thanks for sharing your experience...i'm a big fan of bandit signs for finding tenants....did you try craigslist?

Maybe a Frequently Asked questions document?

As an agent, it would help to find investors that buy and sell frequently.

I like letters handwritten on the outside.Many of my family members have has been in the postal service for years.Postcards are cheaper and easier to do BUT they also look like junk mail and the carriers insert them into junk circulars even when you paid postage.The result is many throw them in the trash without ever seeing them.So I have never been a postcard fan.
