Urban living can afford the same outdoor experiences as suburban or rural (just come to Denver and hang out at one of our many parks on a weekend for beautiful trees, open fields, and PLENTY of space to set up and hang out however you want - and you don't have to take care of a massive yard to get all that enjoyment!

Some owners just eat this cost if it is too low of an amount of claim on insurance. 

I know they'll definitely take care of any HVAC situation but you can also talk to them about anything else.

I understand this is essentially the BRRRR strategy but with less of an emphasis on the Rehab portion. 

The kids are home schooled so they're always home.We had a leak which we took care of, but still not much of a difference in the bill. 

I think your question is whether you want individuals as members of an LLC vs LLCs within LLC?

Even if you were buying another primary (which you aren't - you are converting your primary to a rental, then buying a new primary) the bank doesn't care as long as your DTI ratio and credit score can handle it. 

I would be careful on taking $13,000 off his bid.

I am starting to build a quick-list of trusted/recommended plumbers, electricians, etc. in the Des Moines area that I can call in the event of an emergency.

Anyone on here have experience and care to walk me through the process?
