How the math works

Direct turn = standard + excess damage + deep clean + abandoned. Extra vacancy = days × rent. Total = both.

Pre-photograph every unit on lease signing with date-stamped images of each room. Eviction-era damage recovery dies on the question 'was it already like that?' — signed move-in checklists with photos are the single artifact that pushes judgment recovery from 10% to 30%+.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why worse than normal turn?

Standard turn $800-2,000. Post-eviction 2-4x that. Intentional damage, pest, abandoned property, deep odor treatment common. Average post-eviction turn $2,500-6,500 across MF. Add lost rent during extended turn.

Damage recovery?

Beyond-ordinary-wear damage billable to tenant security deposit, then filed as judgment. Recovery rate 10-30% on judgment collection. Budget most damage as unrecoverable; document everything for eventual collection.

Speed-to-lease?

Normal turn 5-7 days. Post-eviction 10-20 days. Treatment of heavy pest, smoke, sanitation issues extends further. Move-in readiness delay compounds rent loss.

What documentation matters here?

Written leases, move-in/move-out inspections with photographs, ledger entries showing every payment and charge, served notices with proof of service, and contemporaneous emails or texts. Courts weigh written evidence heavily; informal understandings rarely stand. Institutional operators run a monthly file audit to catch gaps before they matter. Good paper trails recover most of what's owed.
