You could list with a furnished option and charge more premium per month, and then move everything out if your tenant does not want it furnished.

Did she have a will and if so, who is in charge of it? 

When you rent to three students, you can still charge more by the room rates since they are all separate.

I would give the tenant a deadline to remove the junk or tell them you are hiring to have it done and charging them.

The problem: since my relative lives in Property #1 and I'm not charging rent, I'm paying the expenses out-of-pocket, which is too much for me.  

I purchased the property (for $100k cash) in my name and then quit to my LLC at refinance but was charged $1100 for the deed and doc stamps.

It also helpful to check what others are charging for pet and cleaning fees.  

Can't tell you how many times we've caught attorneys learning on "our dime" and basically charging us more.Go to the local court and they should have a list of cases, contact the attorneys who's names you see the most.

@Hai Le don't have an answer for you but will  this upgrade the unit so you can charge more?

Does anyone have contacts that sell modern cabinets and won't take a year to get without charging me an arm and a leg?
