So I saved an additional $2500 in taxes after the fact.

Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) are an increasingly popular way to generate additional rental income on an existing property.

Do you have additional capital to add?

So sad to hear that all the time and money you or your clients invested and the trust you had for Delta Build were lost, in addition to the lost opportunity to otherwise make money.

Additionally, the supply of homes for sale is constrained because of this and will be for some time putting upward pressure on prices in most markets.Thinking about renting your house in Seattle would be wise as someone else will pay the mortgage down, and rents and the value of the property will go up over time.

In addition to conventional loans and FHA loans, if either you or your wife are veterans, the VA also has a rehab program.I'd be happy to discuss my rehab experience both as an investor and as a mortgage broker, and at least help you think through your options. 

If you currently rent for $2,500 and take the $1,750; you have additional positive cash flow of $750 for your rent situation.Have you thoroughly looked over the capex potential issues? 

.- Logically, there really is no additional security provided with both keyed doorknob & deadbolt, but a deadbolt is more secure than a keyed doorknob.- Since you need a key to lock a deadbolt when you leave the premises, tenant's can't lock their key(s) in the home and then pester us to come let them back in.--- Tenants can still lose their keys outside their home:(

First, I looked at the most common solutions: Quickbooks, Stessa, Digb, RentRedi and finally went with Stessa because it was free.

Yes, I’ll check with regional building, but curious for additional thoughts here.
