You can get the PDFs here: https://www.biggerpockets.com/...As far as the maintenance, you should make it clear in the lease that if damage or wear and tear is determined to be due to misuse or overuse that it is the tenant's responsibility to pay for maintenance and/or replacement of hardware/fixtures.

None of the cables had the proper plates installed, just bare holes in wood paneling, cabinets and through the floor.I understand that the satellite/dish on poles are so the roof doesn’t get damaged.

If it were me I would keep the security deposit and depending on the cost of the vandalism, I would sue for damages.

I thought I was going to have a heart attack :-)The best thing I can tell you is to make sure you have “some†out in your contracts (i.e. subject to house inspections) or make the damages as low as possible (i.e. $100 deposits) Now with bank owned properties you need to put up $500 at a min.I typically purchased 3 - 4 houses per month (1-2 REO’s and 1-2 lease option cooperative assignments).

One of my neighbors house was damaged by fire(no one was home thank God).

Kids cause damage, and the liabaility... sheesh.

Insurance is pretty standard …each occurrence 1M, general aggregate 2M, damage to rented premises 50K.

Any damage to the rooms.... bill the county.
