High efficiency appliances were utilized including HVAC, light fixtures and water heater.The use of the accelerated depreciation strategy helps real estate investors to reduce the tax liability immediately which therefore increases their bottom line due to the offsetting of income.

So I'm asking, What is the best way to utilize the results they both gave me and narrow it down?

They are covering cost of insurance, taxes, utilities and all medical expenses which are rapidly draining their available funds.

A lot of investors want to buy as many properties as they can and utilize as much debt as they can.

You'll want to have an idea of how you handle utilities, and I've heard of the owner covering a weekly house cleaning to keep the peace sort of thing.  

We pay about $1700 for mortgage, insurance, utilities ect.  

And yeah I am not opposed to the 80% ltv, just figured get the most I can possible to utilize it as best possible with cash reserves left over.

Otherwise, they will trash the property, not pay their portion of rent or utilities, and then move on to the next property.

However, as a primary, it depends on the property and how you utilize it. 

In my estimation (local utility costs vary as well as temperature) it is about $400 per month on average.
