And if you do, you are going to possibly sacrifice the value of the tenant that you get for the price that you're getting upfront, and if you're going to lose your tenant that you currently have then you risk the vacancy, having to do a rent turn, and that would come with more maintenance, and many additional costs that you would have To encumber that would most likely far exceed that $160 extra that you were trying to raise in the first place. vacancy means no money coming in, and then your investment is dead in the water.

And the most recent are in the 270 range or below and not up to the 1,000 mark. 

@Gil CanfuWith a $300k price range, you're definitely in a good position to find some solid investment opportunities in the North Texas market.

Property management would depend on the company but ranges from 7-10% so interview a few different companies.

Also, my guests always love my little goodie basket of snacks and a few bottles of water. 

We put “all pets subject to owner approval in our rental listing”.Absolutely 110% charge a $250-$500 (these are the normal ranges) nonrefundable pet fee + monthly pet rent.

Another you could have done was to call a few other PM's in the area and get their take on the rent range.

On larger deals, I've actually seen LTVs come down in the 50%-65% range, depending on the type of property/experience of the developer.

Or, you could ask for a rate quote based on a range of credit scores and you can figure out what they'd charge you on your own.

Solid curtains, water fountain in the backyard, adding trees at the property line nearest the freeway, white noise generators are all other options.
