Right now, I'm absorbing any information I can pertaining to the field of real estate investing, including podcasts, blogs, books, and articles. 

To limit the cost of this you can raise your rate to absorb this 2.15 - 3.30% upfront fee that is normally financed into your loan but it will take significant rate increase to absorb this chunk.

Thankfully the rents are high too to support these absorbent prices here  :)Good luck,Chris 

There are many ways to pay PMI:- LPMI - lender paid MI which is a fancy term for taking a bit higher rate to absorb the cost of monthly MI for the life of the mortgage, depending on your credit score it may take .125%- .50% more in rate to absorb your entire premium for the life of your loan- BPMI single premium- similar to the above it eliminates the monthly MI premium for the life of the loan but BP part of BPMI stands for "borrower paid," so as you might have guessed the borrower pays this premium in a cash sum at closing either from their own funds or seller concessions they've negotiated from a seller or a gift from their giftors -BPMI monthly or split premium - MI can also be paid as monthly MI which is the stereotypical way to pay MI and it can also be paid as a split premium or hybrid whereby the borrower pays a good chunk upfront to have a greatly reduced monthly MI payment.Most people take LPMI and absorb it through the rate via LPMI to eliminate MI for the life of the loan. 

I am here to absorb as much information as possible to succeed in real estate.

Do you think landlords will just absorb the tax?

Insulation will provide some acoustical relief as an absorbent which will definitely help.

There is a lot of meat there to absorb.
