You also made a good point with insurance and lending, it could be quite a challenge to get that green light if you are not allowed to access the property.

Just finishing up David Greene's excellent book on BRRRR, and the whole idea is to refinance after the rehab when your appraisal will be a lot higher (and hopefully you can pull out all of your cash or more).  

Live off your 120k salary...get as mean and green as possible NOW at 24.

My mom has a lime green house with pink trim and purple shudders and garage door and the drive way is pink as well in SW florida and her place stays rented out.

@Michael Brattelli @Jonathan Greene I’ve been reading up on the same thing on the forums.

A Tax Section (with a separate folder for each year)Colored folders may be helpful (or just be how you want to do it) Red for A/P, Green for A/R or just all Blue because it's your favorite color.If you want to be quick about it, just take a sharpie and write the title on the folder, of if you are more focused on orderliness, print labels and stick them on.
