As long as comps don't reflect those highly upgraded sidings most investors would go with the cheaper option if the purpose is to maximize benefits on the refinance. 16k for siding sounds high if it's a 1000-1500 sqft home

WHATS GOING ON BIGGER POCKETS FAMILY! 

I updated the bathroom/porch in the spring, and am finishing construction on a 2-stall garage (the previous garage was basically a large shed that I could not fit much in).Moving forward I am considering one of the following options to put my money and build equity:1.

I have multiple lenders that can do 100% financing for your short-term rehab loans and long-term DSCR cash-out loan options to refinance and hold the property once it has been rehabbed.

Hey all,I’ve been diving into options for software to help streamline real estate rehab and construction project management.

FHA gets a bad rap because sellers and many agents think it's only for people who don't have the money so if I had 20 percent, but wanted to use FHA, I would present a proof of funds with my offer showing I have more money, but am using the FHA as a financial option so I can get an investment property as well somewhere else.

With your focus in using house hacking, Conventional or FHA loans would be your best options.

What are your next deal options?

It'll likely be much lower.Of course - on subsequent years the property tax footprint can rise by no more than 5% YoY.I'm trying to dial in my P&L here, so if I do find a decent investment property option, the math can be done quickly and I can get moving quickly.
