I had some tenants leave my property in RTP area in North Carolina. And I am located in California and I’m having property managers manage my property. The image I’m sharing is what their quote is to get the property fixed before it can be rented out. I feel the sheet rock repair and paint touchups is excessive since it’s only slight smudges and just filling in the holesand painting it again for which there is already a paint can also I don’t understand why diagnosing all the plumbing fixtures,

Contd… would cost $440. Would love to hear what you guys think ? Are the prices in line with what you’re seeing or are these excessive?

I’m in the RTP area. I’ll get this done for 4,180 no problem.

I would ask Southern Group Property Management. They do a great job around here and also a family business.

Seems reasonable to me.

Do you have 3 quotes? Or just 1?

So it sounds like you know this is an overpriced invoice. If you can’t trust them on a simple turn like this, then what can you trust them with?

I would find a different management company, or self manage.

Who is still in denial about a housing correction? The Fed just made another .75% increase. Powell said they won’t stop until inflation is 2%. He also said a recession would be better than the consequences of unchecked inflation. He announced he will bring rates to a “restrictive level” until “the job is done”. He said that labor demand needs to soften (ie: layoffs). He very explicitly said he wants to slash demand and that housing needs a “correction”.

I'm under contract for a new build in progress that won't be done until much later this year. I fully expect interest rates will be higher than what I originally estimated. I may or may not try to lock in a good rate early, but I'm planning on renting it out and this throws a bit if a wrench in my margins. I can take it financially, but wondering, If I absolutely needed to get out of buying it, what recourse do I have? Or could I go ahead, and refinance later (who knows rates at that time...)?
