I recognize that I don't know enough to be truly effective in my REI.  

(PMI effectively raises your mortgage APR and is no longer a tax deduction on a primary residence.)If you really want to invest, what short-term sacrifices are you willing to make?

Since the property has increased in value due to your rehab efforts, you can often refinance for more than what you originally paid, recovering your initial investment.Repeat: After refinancing, you've effectively used none of your own money, but now have equity in a cash-flowing property.

@Hieu Bui Your numbers are a bit off... roof itself will be close to $10k.. you have soffit rot and that might be rotted inside into the trusses... yikes..I saw ceilings that were leaking as well...Personally, I’d get a waste contractor bin.. remove all the crap, take a log screwdriver and then start poking around... you can see what’s not visible...Once complete, do a materials cost list.

Don't waste any time in small claims court.....especially here in Chicago!
