If you are simply replacing physical time with mental energy worrying about your syndication investments, I would not say the trade off is worth it.

You increase their energy bill by having to run the pump excessively.

And to get the #’s most people want, would require more doors (higher quantity), and therefore more time/energy intensive mgt issues.

As for cost, my nuclear-powered Duke Energy NC Residential Service (RES) costs $0.11661 per kWh.

Myself and the Rent To Retirement team put in over a year of our time, energy & dedication to produce a comprehensive and detailed investment course we possibly could to set new investors up for success.

Why would you spend all your time and energy trying to convert her into a good tenant, knowing you're unlikely to succeed?

Has anyone worked with a lender who has actually closed an FHA, VA or Conventional Energy Efficient Mortgage?

You are young and you have energy, so work a lot while you don't have any other commitments or people depending on you.

I would focus your energy on that flip.

Insurance is WAY cheaper for a new build, as are utilities, because the newer homes are more energy efficient, and also have less need for immediate upgrades.
