100% use your own. Issues happen; it’s better to have your own dedicated team.

Get copies of the inspections. They’re walking for a reason. I had a house like this and we got the second guy’s inspection. It made the issue crystal clear. A termite treatment and bond later and we were back in business.

I’ve been looking for a simple to use solution for this as well. I’ve found ATracker, which has buttons you tap on/off for your categories. It still has the ability to input time blocks, of course. While it’s running, it displays on your Lock Screen, which you can tap to jump right back to it.

The pro upgrade, which allows data export among other things, is only a one time $5. I’m going to stick with this for a while.

I’ve had the same question. This area and some others have a requirement that you have a local contact available to be called. Some people have suggested listing the cleaner, but I’m not so sure the cleaner would want to be on call for random calls. 

 Thanks. That was my understanding, but figured I'd ask since we were on the subject.

Is a DSCR generally going to be a long term loan, all other things being equal? Is that the long term loan strategy?

I might’ve missed it, but I see you’ve searched for 1.6m-1.7m list houses, but I don’t see where you’re validating they will perform at 160k-170k to be 10x.

 12 mil+ wear layer. Only a few of the big box store products meet this. Most are like 4 mil, which shows scratches real easy.

my understanding is that waterproof laminate just has a film on top to help keep water from seeping down. It’s good for a few minutes of small amounts of water, but not lots of water or anywhere that’s wet like bathrooms. Any more than that and the product is ruined. LVP is actually waterproof, which protects the product, but you can still have issues with water getting under it in a flood situation.

Are you classifying that down payment as a loan at the time of purchase or at the time of refinancing?
