Worked really well and it didn't cost me anything.

And if it did happen, the lender will simply fix the "botched paperwork" and proceed, A lawsuit will cost your friend $25,000 plus paying the arrears on the loan with no guarantee of success.

The LLC will be renting the property from my father and he is willing to share some of the cost for the rehab and upgrades.  

Construction costs are up about 40% over the last 4 years.

I always gave in for ease and the fact I had a physical number, but when you looking at the cost per fax it is exorbitant.Today I received an email that stated my service cost was rising to $160 and they billed me on the same day.... umm no!

For me I tend to look for markets not on the lists because maybe less people will be investing there and prices will be more competitive.

They may cost more than a c/a system alone depending on how many units you need.

Question - Why do the total project costs not include the holding costs? 

I find that converting the property into a duplex is a lengthy and costly process, and I want to start renting it legally without going through a long process, because I've spent for rehabs and don't want to put in more for now.
