If a contactor is replacing only the decking (boards you walk on) $12k is a ripoff.

However, I don’t yet have the funds for a down payment on another house, and I’m trying to figure out the best option for where to live while I rent the apartment.Do you have any recommendations for managing this transition or tips on finding a temporary place to stay?

In this post, I'll share my thoughts on the value of a good property manager and how to select one.

And since the S-Corp’s profits pass through to you, you’d still pay personal income tax on the rental income.

Those agents are recommended because they paid to be first on the list.

Some areas have restrictions on short-term rentals or even renting out part of an owner-occupied home.

I completely understand almost all of the frame work and bases but just need actual advice from someone one on on.

Every month, property 2 has been paying most of the mortgage on that Property 1 home equity loan.

Hi Bobby, can you expand on your question a little bit, what do you mean by where to start?

I'm sure you will need tools to find deals (eg price/sqft etc), estimate rents, calculate cash-on-cash returns, cap rate etc.
