My experience is that these issues coupled with love turn good tenants into bad tenants.  

Once I have it, everything is the same.I would never hold a property after completing the rehab to wait for a couple of months thinking Spring might bring a better price.

You'd probably need a couple buckets and a day's labor to do the work, but it should by you a few years and completely seal any leaks for now.

So you're asking a tenant to use a system you have put in place, then when it takes a couple extra days you want to charge the tenant - regardless of the tenant's intent and the fact that they are following the rules you put in place.

Since you've lived in the apartment since 2007, you likely won’t be hit with any capital gains taxes as long as your profit is under the IRS exclusion limit ($250k for single filers or $500k for married couples).

Once you’ve paid off 1 or 2 you start paying off mortgages every couple years. 

The first chart shows the estimated return on a 100k investment where 100k becomes 193kA couple of questions:1.

My realtor suggested offering up to 3% buyer assist to help buyers who might have a hard time coming up with that 20% down since FHA financing isn't available on this house, so we did that a couple days ago and also dropped the price $2,000 to push the listing more towards the top.

Even if one partner takes a more active role, both should understand the motivations and risks associated with investing.It's common for couples to struggle if they're not aligned on investment goals.
