@Anthony Finelli check your mortgage paperwork for the Truth-In-Lending form to find your APR.APR is your effective interest rate including interest, MIP and closing costs.If you can refinance the rental at a cheaper rate than the APR, then you should!

I am being charged $225 a month in interest on my loan to AHP.

The builder had a given us the paved yard, Granite kitchen top, washer and dryer at added value with no charge.

I haven't worked with anything but hardwood and tile in recent years but would prefer a cheaper, waterproof option if it looks decent. 

Yup and its a joke when you have these proclamations from those running for pres that they are going to magically accelerate construction.. they can do it if they want to pay 100% of it.. but if they expect the private sector that has to work through local zoning etc.. that aint happening and you cant force people to sell the land cheaper than they think its worth or can get on the open market just because we need starter housing.

I just acquired one from a PM where they were charging a tenant a resident benefit package and a building protection plan.  

.- Value-Add Investments: Beyond cosmetic upgrades, think about adding amenities like solar panels, EV charging stations, or smart home tech.

Tell him that you are running out of funds and you hadn't planned on the extra 20% he's charging on each bill. 

NOTE: we charge extra for this.4) What about a floor plan, so prospective tenants can get an idea where their furniture may fit?

If the law allows, I will sometimes move the personal items to storage, which is much cheaper than lost rent, so I can clean up the rental and find a new tenant.
