So it sounds like me you built additional equity into the home your living in now.

Hello @Yvonne Wang,The scope of work should include the following:- Basic info: Property address, client name, contractor's contact info, address, license#'s, signed general/operating agreement b/w contractor and client- Specification of repairs: Repair item, Quantity of items needed, total & per unit cost of items, taxes (if applicable), Completion hours, title of the person responsible for the repair item, written summary describing the work- Add'l info: Schedule of repairs, additional payment schedule details i.e. disbursement schedule, method of disbursement, deposits, holdback amounts, etc.The screenshot below highlights a couple of repair items.

Are there additional steps you take when screening applicants, or do you take fewer steps?

So you just need to look at that additional $2000 - $3000 of interest each year as really being 1000 - $2000 of total new expense to your after the tax deduction.3.  

If you ever want to discuss strategies, share experiences, or need additional resources, feel free to reach out.

Quote from @Chris Seveney: Quote from @Devin James: In 2021, we saw buyers upgrading to larger homes, taking advantage of 3% interest rates to afford an extra 300+ square feet.Today, smaller homes are selling much faster as higher rates make additional square footage less affordable.While rates are historically average, I don’t see them dropping significantly.

Even a brief consultation can clarify your legal standing and provide additional strategies tailored to Raleigh’s market.Have you considered asking other local landlords how they’ve handled early lease terminations?

If you want to add it to places like affordablehousing.com then that gives you more exposure.  

This will provide you experience, a story to tell, and the credibility needed for adding additional clients.I'm happy to discuss more.

It never hurts to have an additional set of eyes to look after your property.
