It will also limit your access to financing and may increase some other administrative chores.Using LLC is an excellent tool for asset protection.

Not much concerned about cashflow, just equity and payoff so the home flows almost all profit in another 12+ years.A buddy of mine has an 1200 sqft 3/2 in a decent area with good elem and middle schools and just ok high school.He bought about 10 years ago at 125K. 

@Chris Roche properties values in Nashville have increased faster than rental rates. 

I'm not concerned about their fee.

One of the units is a 4bd and im concerned that although the rent for those are huge, that no one will actually rent that unit. 

For example, if you see 3% appreciation, your paid-off property increases in value by $3k, your leveraged properties increase in value by $12k--quadrupling your Return on Equity (ROE).

Reason why we are asking, is the appraiser will need to justify how value increased by $33.5k.We did a few upgrade ourselves but nothing major that needed a contractor; mostly clean up, fixing fences, changing bathroom hardware, etc. 

I have a potential property but a foundation concern.

I could not get "W" to talk to me and understand her situation deeper, but I asked "B" to pass a list of my questions to "W" and be a mode of communication.Since, this is my first time dealing with a Divorce situation in this business I am very confused and concerned if I will fall into some kind of a trouble.

Now with time and rent growth, what could be a negative cash flow property might very well become a cash flow king, but that takes patience.Another way to increase cash flow would be renting out rooms in the unit you live in, either Airbnb or longer term.
