I am wanting to structure the deals so that my lender profits are capital gains as opposed to interest.

Inspection by Sec 8 to pass a unit for them can sometimes be like jumping thru hoops.On reinspection for next year if the same person is living there YOU go in and do a preinspection, you bring light bulbs, exterior light bulbs, you turn on each light to make sure they function that is part of the unit.. not lamps.. they will fail a unit for a burnt out bulb.

Exterior Trim Painting (home is brick).

Some buildings have a fifth meter for the owner if there are items like exterior parking lights or other things that aren't tenant specific for the owner to cover.

That said, it is not the foundation or anything--just a fairly thin exterior.

I'd suggest using that or the full exterior as your feature photo.  

Property summary:Location: Burke, VA (22015)Single Family Split Level 2-Levels4 Bed/3 Baths, finished basement with exterior entrance1,185SF Above Grade Living Area; 525SF basementCorner lot, approx .25 acresMy parent's have owned it 34 years and are looking to relocate full time out of the area (been splitting time between Burke and Myrtle Beach past 15 years).

Two questions for you: was the brick already on the exterior but just covered up by the bushes?

Do you think amortization matters or the fixed rate term of 10 years as opposed to 5 years matters considering the rates are low currently and will most likely be higher after 5 years?

My knowledge extends into the construction of commercial and industrial exterior facades and waterproofing.
