.- If it's on Schedule E as "repairs" or "maintenance," an underwriter will default to assuming it's a recurring expense, and ding your DTI accordingly.

You certainly will cash flow on many months, but over time with maintenance and especially CapEx (roof, paint, heating system), you'll be near break even.A good understanding of loans, interest rates and amortization schedules helps, along with Sch E for your taxes (for rentals).

I am charged $.50 per transaction, get an e mail once it is paid, and the money gets deposited into my account in a few days, and it is also linked up to QB of course.  

@Alan E.

I have to pay $5 per lease to e-lease and 50 cents per etf but at my size they dont come close to $1000 more.

It works great, is easy to use and I get reports as well, like my Schedule E and Profit Loss etc.
