I am looking to do a full roof replacement on a 2 story duplex rental property in Cleveland, Ohio. 

Since refinancing is just getting rid of your old mortgage and replacing it with a new mortgage, the same initial rules apply.

I have worked with many FHA buyers and I only had a problem with one property where the garage roof was in terrible condition and needed to be replaced.  

Taxes on rentals seem brutal, so if you aren't doing 1031 exchange, better have something amazingly good as a replacement.  

They refused to clean the carpets and went on and started replacing all carpets in approximately 700sq ft living space.

@Mary Schlabach2020 Tax year was a unique tax year - Certain unemployment income was considered non-taxable as a last minute change.A lot of taxpayers also changed to married filing separate to take advantage of stimulus payments eligible for one spouse.However, getting the tax return done at the last minute if you just have W-2 and a rental is taking too long.best of luck in your search for a replacement.

One exterior door needed replaced and a "hopefully small" roof repair.  

I'm closing on my first investment property at the end of the month, and it's looking like all the doors will need to be replaced (about 8). 

Here are the numbers:Location: San Fernando Valley (Los Angeles)2bd/1ba - 850sq ftRemaining balance: 314,000Zillow estimate: 676,400Redfin estimate: 713,749Rent Zestimate (Zillow): 2771 (I feel this is a tad high for such a small house)Cons of the house:Old roof mounted package unit, that eventually will need replacing (made in 1999)Still need to repair 4 sides of fencing repaired/replacedDriveway needs a slurry job1 hour drive from my current house with no trafficLawn needs a redesign (more drought tolerant stuff) - It gets very hot in the valleyPros:Mortgage is only 1760 all inPotential ~900 net/moI already have it...If I did sell it, I would like to buy something closer to where I live, but I also don't want to get dinged with any unnecessary taxes either. 

Age of home and capital expenses to replace roof, a/c, pool equipment, how much does sand affect wear and tear(?)
