Kevin, it will cost you a lot less to talk with your atty. and set up a prorated lease where a portion if no all of your utilities can get billed back to your tenants similar to many commercial leases that do CAM charges.

The best one one was when my husband walked into the tax office about 8 years ago and showed them that our house value had went up by 50% in one year, the lady looked at it, says wow, that's terrible and lowered the value to less than it was the previous year!

You could rent a room in a big house owned by a little old lady or in a rooming house.When my son was looking for an off-campus apartment, we were fortunate to find him a room in a rooming house in Hyde Park.

The blonde (there's a reason I mention that :-) young lady said,"oh it has been great, but I hate to inform you that you have ants in your cute little house"I was shocked, I had never had any bug problem, let alone ants......

Purchase price: $260,000 Cash invested: $80,000 Sale price: $380,000 Purchased this house from the family of elderly lady that lived there.

I'm not sure how straight-forward your rental amounts are, but I needed the ability to line-item out several different charges (CAM fees, etc.) as well as have different base rent amounts based on the year of the lease (cost of living increases yearly) and found that Innago was the best fit for me. 

I got one lady that said she was so sorry, but her tenant was staying and she had not updated her calendar....So?

Thanks Tom, buying at the FC auction isnt an optionThe first is only slightly more than the 2nd and it will be bid way over that amount.Trying to help the lady get something via a SS

It’s a course that Cam Cathcart runs that I’ve been pondering taking.
