Interest rates: Since your rental mortgages have relatively low interest rates (2.99%–4.375%), it might be better to keep them as they are, especially since borrowing at those rates is pretty cheap compared to current market rates.

It is not much larger than my tankless, but my tankless is fairly large compared to many.  

Looking at other listings, it appears that it is priced well, a little lower than other comparable homes.

In my experience, if a 3 bed in that area, with comparable size and finishes is only getting $1200, you will get $1200, not $1800.And to James comment: while I am all for treating all tenants as people first, owning and managing properties is a business first.

Be careful out there....some of the new builds are not comparable to the old builds....many of the newer ones are all siding, no brick, no light fixtures or ceiling fans...just LED recessed lighting...no doorbell, no garage door opener, no attic stairs, one piece tubs, vs tiled baths, no landscaping, no trees, and on and on....they've taken out virtually every single cost.   

Are based on their capabilities rather than what is ideally offered to you (for example, if a lawyer is only licensed in Texas, they might recommend structuring in Texas even when it's more advantageous to establish, say, a Wyoming holding company, simply because they cannot facilitate the latter).Comparing this to the medical field, as discussed in this thread, physicians generally provide more consistent advice.

We recommend you get management contracts from several PMCs and compare the services they cover and, more importantly, what they each DO NOT cover.

Compared to the 180+98 hours of training for licensing and first renewal of RE License in Texas.

And lastly, I search FunishedFinder listings nearby, find comparable properties, and track the listed rent for a few months (does it increase, decrease?).

I don't think you even need to be a general contractor or subcontractor to set up an account there.They have a cool warehouse Northwest of Chicago.Otherwise, Home Depot's Lifeproof floor is pretty nice too, but not sure how it compares in pricing to what you saw.
