Additionally, should property manager withheld rental income for tax?

This is therefore making me put an additional $1212/month more towards my loans for those first/next 7.4 years ($2446-$1234= $1212).If I was to invest this money instead in a property via low money down owner-occupied purchasing wouldn't I be far better off come the end of the 22 years if I chose that repayment plan for my loans, ifffff I rely on appreciation (I know I know, bare with me).I think this because recently, I bought a triplex last year ($235k) and it is cash flowing about $3k/yr (soon to go up when I get rid of my PMI) plus my tax benefits.

Here is a website with additional information: https://studentaid.ed.gov/sa/repay-loans/consolidationDepending on your source and level of income, there are different repayment plans the previously mentioned website discusses.I can only speak from experience with Great Lakes, but you can google student loan consolidation to find others.Hope this helps.

There are some differences there in terms of neighborhood but a lot of the same stuff applies.In addition to crime and location close to main roads, I also would look at jobs growth vs cost of living in the area.

Hi Bea,HomeAway has stated that the average management fee is 24%, but that isn't necessarily the average effective rate after additional fees.

When they renew, I do not charge anything additional.

Keep the insurance in the homeowners name (you become an additional insured), get a durable power of attorney from the homeowner, and make the payments on time!  

If you do sell within the next three years, you'll probably come out even, as you added the additional loan costs to the principal you need to pay down and your house will may be underwater (assuming you bought at market and there isn't crazy appreciation where you bought your house). 

Then when you go to resell and pay additional costs you are taking a loss.

My question is should I have payed the $72,000 and but additional $15,000 in to the duplex and see if it cf at $87,000.
