Bids are applied in $100 increments.  

I also plan on applying my net rental income towards principal only payments to shorten the life of the loan.

ALSO they have regs on rooming houses only allowed in specific zoning, similar zoning as for hotels;  only on main streets in business districts AND you have to apply for licensing and blabla as for a hotel..That said;  there is a small movement supporting rent by the room as a small step toward solving affordable housing. 

Note that there are restrictions that apply to STRs in Ojai and the Ojai Valley.  

I have a three unit building, but one unit needs to be remodeled the other two have been renting out for the past few years.If I spend X on renovating this apartment to get it ready for rental will the cash on cash return apply ?

----------------------------Here's a quick breakdown of the eligible loan amounts based on an all-cash investment strategy, but the same applies if you have a mortgage on the property as well:• 0-6 Months (Delayed Purchase, no Rehab completed) - up to 80% of purchase price• 6+ Months (Cash-Out Refinance, no Rehab completed) - up to 75% of appraised value• 0-3 Months (Cash-out refi, Rehab completed) - 75% of appraised value [good rates]• 3-6 Months (Cash-out refi, Rehab completed) - 75% of appraised value [best rates]My one caveat is that a 1-4 unit residential property in Missouri is eligible for an 80% cash-out, albeit at a higher interest rate premium (8.625% @ 80% LTV vs. 6.875% @ 75% LTV today).
