You may also want to look at a cash out refinance to eliminate one or more Heloc or a few credit cards to lower your DTI and outgoing monthly debts.A heloc is a risk since its an open end mortgage like a credit card which carries a higher risk versus a 30 year mortgage. 

In the summer everything settles back down.If my assumption is correct, when the foundation lifts the floor in the winter, it will also raise the exterior wall sitting on it.

I’ve been in the real estate business for almost three years now and have completed five deals: one buy-and-hold long-term rental, one short-term rental, and three fix-and-flip projects, for which I helped raise capital.

Some of them being: that they purchased the property very long time ago and don't need a massive amount of income to cash flow, they are fearful of raising rents and having a vacancy, or they just don't wanna deal with it anymore.Either way, this is where the opportunity lies for the new Investor.

After giving some grace, I had to turn the heat back up on them to force them to make the donation.They made the donation on a credit card, and while it's a far cry from the $50k+ in damages, it was a meaningful amount of money to them.

However, finishing the basement for $25,000 when cash flow is already tight may not offer a sufficient return on investment (ROI) unless you’re confident it will significantly raise occupancy or rates.Pros:Potential to increase the property’s rental appeal and income.DIYing the basement could save on labor costs.Cons:Upfront costs and time investment.The additional space may not increase STR income enough to justify the expense.5.

I'm inclined to say no, especially because my margins have gone down significantly with increased property tax and insurance, and I haven't raised rent.

Im curious how much this would attract finding a tenant. or how much rent i can raise by installing it

On the forth month I did get the four months in one lump payment which felt great, but really was just refilling my account or paying off my credit card which was stressful.
