., im from CA to, born and raised, long story short, alot of family there, i love it travel there at least 3 times a year, so i know the area just like i know my own streets. we have a couple in Merrillville now...but AnywayThats a very tough area, its extremely close to Gary, literally one block.

This went on for a little bit and when it was all said and done this is what it came out to (and they thanked me for solving these problems for them).House rent = $600/mRefrigerator = $25/m And they are responsible for maintenance and repairs for allwasher/dryer $15/m if not returned in same condition it comes out of deposit :)grass cutting = $35/cut apprx every 2 weeks = $70/m (only takes 15 mins per cut and I have to be there because I mow 3 others on the same street anyway)Total = an additional $110 per month on a 2BR unit for not much effort on my part.In closing, there are several little things like this that we can do to increase our rents if we just get creative.

Across the street he notices a big sign advertising pork chops for $1.50/lb.  

They are all on the same street.

I'd bump it up to at least one month's rent AND you still have to save for long term Capex issues, besides there may be some water line issues between the house and the street or some other random issue.  

Do you have cut off streets that help you differentiate between eastern and western Gwinnett.

The Tampa Bay market can change from street to street. 

But if you dig deep, you'll find they skipped over the house on the same street with the same square footage that sold for $30K less than they want to show you. 

Provide safe pedestrian and vehicular access from a public or private street.

The best I got is realtor.com and google street view.
