After EVERYTHING is signed they do a wire to the seller for their proceeded and a wire or check to you for the excess which is your profit.

Rent increases over 10 years of generally $800-$1200 are far in excess of these amounts.

My business partner and I are hoping on having some cash to invest for repairs soon, but I'm not sure we could cover anything in excess of $20,000.

So I paused up there, and was contemplating that incomplete insulation probably costs them a certain amount per month in excess heating or cooling bills.

I also noticed from the split second side view the patch seemed excessively thick, which means a large bump in the wall.

The heating company boss (who got called down to our house by the contractor) deemed it so important to get replaced that he was pulling people from other jobs to get it done today.Needless to say my father-in-law is now a believer in my inspections (we also found a moisture problem in the bathroom causing the paint on the ceiling to peel that had never been reported by the tenants and fire alarms that were not functioning properly) and I'm so glad that I have a reserve fund!!

If we accumulate enough excess cash, that can always go to pay down the principal early, or it can be reinvested in another property.However, a 15 year loan does have a big advantage or two, IF you have enough reserves to stay solvent without positive cash flow to fuel your reserves.

I am doing the easy things myself while subbing out the more technical items:electrical main panel and raising the mast to coderoofHVACAnd last but not least we may be ahving to raise the roof of the master bath and replacing the sill plate due to moisture penetration (I will assist in this since I am good following directions...well most of the time really)Drywall cause who really likes that anyways? 

One inquiry on your credit report wont make or break you as long as you don't have excessive inquiries that will compromise your FICO score.

(rent in excess of 1000 for the year is considered UBIT and taxed)Deducting depreciation does no good.You need to jump through a lot of hoops to make sure the money stays IRA eligible.
