If I'm trying to determine market value of a property I'll use Zillow to see what similar properties in the area have been selling for the last 3-6 months. 

anyone saying any areas than what we said is doing so because that is where the inventory is that they can sell as an agent. we only look at 7 zip codes out of ohio which has 440 and all are where property values and rents are the highest and new construction sells the highest. 

You charge the tenant a depreciated value based on the remaining life span of the carpet you are replacing.

@Wesley Bryant how are you calculating your terminal value for the IRR?

I've been following the forum for a while and value the insights you all share.

We are now disabled and maintaining the land (in city limits) is becoming too much, AND property tax values are TOO high, due to a few lots that keep selling and owners later finding out new fema guidelines have made lots unbuildable.

Cash out refinance on my primary house, conventional mortgage 25% down How did you add value to the deal?

The only value they add is for someone who does not know much about the 0% credit card game, teaching them the best order to apply in, e.g., starting with business cards that typically don't show on your personal credit report before doing the personal cards that are going to increase your credit risk until the CC companies finally stop offering you 0% deals.

I totally value and want a property manager to take the day-to-day management off my hands, but on issues with tenant damage and I would like to be kept up to date on matters, as well as have copies of all notices provided to the tenants for my own record keeping.

Purchase price: $51,000 After repair value $140,000.
