The Lender would look at your tax returns to calculate your portion of the net profit from the LLC, and only that would be used to offset the $180K loan - so chances are it would just make a  dent in the $180k mortgage and not wipe it off completely rom your DTI unless it's a major cash flow machine.Since you are currently the only borrower on the loan, I'm not seeing a way to completely eliminate it from your DTI.

My basic advice: Avoid (My mantra is never) buy a property that is away rom your residence and depend upon expensive property management companies or Hotel programs to generate cash flows.

I sometimes like to get a nice classy bouquet from a florist for the table.The giveaway is a great idea- make it something good, that a people might want, but not too pricey for you (ipod shuffle?)

We also take specific shots of anything requiring repairs and submit a ROM (rough order of magnitude) on repair costs, along with a recommendation on the course of action and the length of time to include in the Cancellation Option (TREC Sect 23), which is the only real contingency in our contracts.If the investor chooses to proceed and is a buy & hold investor, they have 2 choices.  

I love growing flowers so I brought her a small bouquet of flowers from my garden.

It's up to us to find deals and analyze them. ...except very few REA know how to analyze deals rom REI's point of view.
