You'd also essentially be volunteering for "double taxation" that way by paying the loan back with after-tax money and the need potentially paying taxes again when you make a normal withdrawal in retirement.  

The last thing you want to do is grant rent rebates for anything, never volunteer a rebate only do it when pushed.

Volunteer boards (or even professional managers) may have other priorities or simply not be able to have the reserves matching the end of the useful life of building components (without raising dues and getting voted out).See what all the dues cover, too, and if you have some utilities in there or need to add that (or will pass it on to the renter).But, on your numbers, you do look to have $500 in maintenance $200 for other (monthly?

And what's great about this approach is that you never have to ask anyone for money, some will just volunteer and some will be people you never expected.

Anyways, hello, and thank you to all who volunteer their time to help others on this website!

As someone who is from Newark and still invests as well as volunteers there (with a youth mentoring organization ).

I heard a wise lady say realtors, investors, and attorneys are all volunteers until the house closes.

Alternatively are there any places I could just volunteer?
