I want it to be nice, but i'm not flipping a high end home.This is an actual scope of work. 

Even if they only clean when you are coming thru, that is better than years of piling up.5) Gives you information to determine if you want to renew the lease.6) If you have regular inspections, then if a tenant is withholding rent, it gives you the opportunity to check on your property.Older homes with radiators and no fans in the bathroom are a nightmare.

I was approached by my neighbor if I wanted to purchase their house since they plan to move in the next three months for new job opportunities.

And of course since its their boo boo and we spent a lot of money to get there and took our money out of circulation we usually could get a nice check out of them for the E and O .. was not often but as we talk about this and the good ole days pop up I keep remember things like this..

Having cash to play with is nice, though the rollercoaster has given me a fresh appreciation for real estate and holding.

My wife and I are exploring opportunities and trying to learns as much as possible.

We had a tenant recently who wanted to be paid back per diem the remaining days of the month that they paid for and it was too "nitty gritty" for me since we don't rent anyway "per day" and it felt like they were trying to get every last bit of $$ out of us at the end so not a nice feeling.

How exciting starting in real estate with so many great opportunities ahead for you.  

It's nice to meet you; I wish you the best on your real estate journey. 

This is a great opportunity for seller financing.
