To be eligible for inclusion into the mortgage, the energy efficient improvements must be "cost effective," i.e., the total cost of the improvements (including maintenance costs) must be less than the total present value of the energy saved over the useful life of the improvements.

Go to the profile page, and you can add that info.Second, I'm not sure I see why a HML would go with a lower rate than normal for a deal like this.

I have recently had a colleague PM that they were unable to find my phone number on my profile.

I just started and LLC and am in the process of building up a serious credit profile to establish lines of credit.

I am new to this site but my e-mail is listed in my profile and i can give you more information on anything that might work for you.

Typically what you will find is that they will allow cash out only to 65-75% of your purchase price which leaves a significant portion of your cash and improvements tied up.Better NOT to buy with cash but always make sure there is a note/deed of trust or mortgage filed at closing on the purchase so you are alwys paying off underlying debt.

I guess the only reason could be if I invest into property improvements that benefit the tenant - i.e. energy efficiency in appliances, windows, etc.....

It is good to have you, too.You can learn more about posters by reviewing their 'profile'.
