I used the 75% rule on the income and added it and my DTI without the rental goes from 24% to 38%.Or does it just allow me to just take the net profit of that rental and add it to my rental? 

Do they value nicer finishes and design or is that additional cost lost on the typical tenant in that pocket?

Are you looking to do additional projects like this in other cities/states?

I'm not satisfied with not filing the rental in an LLC simply because it's more simple and might cost me an additional filing fee .

(G) Acceptable forms of payment of Rent (including Additional Rent) are ___ personal check, ___ cashier’s check, ___ bank check, ___ money order, and ___ the following online/ACH payment methods ____________________.

Additional resources and tools via brokerage.... 

A PM offers so many additional services in addition to things you cannot do yourself - like simply having a 3rd party between you and the tenant.

Additionally, I have one savings account for reserves for all my properties, which I add to every month. 

What I found was, yes it was nice have additional income, but each project seemed to always interfere.

We have been working to be extremely conservative with our estimates but with this being our first go at this, any additional expertise is greatly appreciated!
