Even smaller repairs like painting and rebuilding decks, stairs and installing new garage doors require spending alot of money.

Newer appliances, free nice laundry, 2nd floor, yard space, storage, clean bathroom, included heat, installed window A/C.Appraisal suggested the unit was worth 2,300 a month, which I felt was a bit high, so I listed it for $2,150 with no move in fee and a 2k deposit.

The payment amount remains fixed until the next rate adjustment (for adjustable rate loans).Likewise for installment loans.
