This is a B- area of town.I will remove the water utility from the projections, I do plan to self manage for at least the first couple years but want it to still make sense if I used a property manager in the future.

We provide one sheet with our contact info repeated and the contact info for utilities.

This group is interactive, and any ideas are always welcome! 

I look forward to interacting with each of you! 

The holding agreement should state that the holding fee will be used for security deposit and first month's rent upon signing of the lease or forfeit (at least 50%) if they back out. ...The only problem with a holding agreement occurs when you want to have the tenants get the utilities into their name before the move in and the utility companies require a signed lease before they will put the service in the tenant's name. 

I wanted to utilize everything pro has to offer (calculators, marketplace etc.) to grow my business as efficiently as possible.I currently work for a local utility company full time for 20 years.

Now I'm living in his house and my house is basically unlivable due to the kitchen and baths being completely tore apart.I've been living in his house (only paying utilities) for the past four months while trying desperately to complete a bathroom so I can move back in and out of his house.

Hello  all,I just want to say thank you to Bigger Pockets, and several of you who interact with the forums.
