Brush up on building code requirements: in basements you're looking for egress windows that are 5.7 sq feet or more openable (3ft by 3ft casement style windows work best), and ceiling heights 6ft 8 inches or greater (as little as 6 ft 4 inches is ok under ductwork and beams though)2.

Purchase price: $300,000 Cash invested: $75,000 I bought this new SFH as I exited from a duplex property and used the 1031 exchange to put all the proceeds to this new SFH.By the time I bought this house the interest rates started inching towards 5%.I got the 30 year mortgage and currently I am paying about 1700/month for mortgage/taxes/insurance and getting a rent of about $2100 per month.
