I was shocked/surprised/educated when I realized that my 5 out-performed that person's 20!

Everything from the permitting process with city planning and zoning to building materials selection to self performing most of the hands on work myself (with help from experienced friends and contractors).

I went today to check on the performance of the repaired unit and it was running (tenant used it from 9am - 5pm today) and the apartment was cooler and cooler air was blowing, but the temp inside the unit (500 sq ft studio) was still hovering around 75 degrees F, which still seems warm.

There are options for Non Owner Occupied Helocs as well (I know bank of the west has done these), but performing refinances are certainly better terms and more secure. 

If you hire a VA to perform a variety of tasks, you're not taking out WC policies on any of them.Ok.

@Cameron Tope, according to IRS rules, in order to qualify "More than half of the personal services you performed in all trades or businesses during the tax year were performed in real property trades or businesses in which you materially participated."

The average FSBO seller can't do it better than the average realtor, let alone an experienced top performer.

Also, one major difference with an investor friendly realtor is that the majority of the time they are working with out of state investors and have good experience with performing video walkthru's for their clients and can point out potential issues.

Cap is a commercial metric that eliminates debt from influencing performance.   

In the last few days, I've noticed an uptick in non-performing HMLs being listed for sale.
