Can I itemize mortgage interest on all main homes in 2017 as long as I only figure the interest at the time it was my principle residence?

Saying a $150/unit bump for an apartment in the midwest that will rent for $700/month with a $3000/unit value add is not a good deal is short sighted.

Those are all very location specific. all your other expenses appear to be in line with generally accepted principles... except vacancy.

I don't believe it at first sight either.

If they suck this bad, I wouldn't want to give them my business out of principle

Your “debt coverage” would be interest And principle payments, so.....what is the anticipated rate And the amortization schedule, this determining your monthly Payment.

It is overly simplistic compared to what I have learned in the real world, but the principles hold true!

First, the appraiser wins, since that's who the bank will use as their expert in order to set the value for funding.Second, you can't use the summaries and conclusions from those sights as value setters. 

People will always be buying and renting homes, they have for a long time... and there's no end in sight.

You do not want to get tangled up in a discrimination suit because you turned down George who brought a dog into the unit and produced a certificate from some online sight that says the Saint Bernard he has in the apartment makes him feels secure during rainstorms and full moons and this keeps him from having nervous seizures.
