There are so many details to property management that you just won't get if you don't learn through doing it yourself, which will be invaluable once you turn things over to a PM.

I will be posting with more details soon. 

Yes, you will have a higher interest rate but you have to look at what it is going to cost you: If the higher rate is going to cost you an extra, say, $30/mo and your closing costs are, say, $6k, you are betting that you are going to keep that loan for over sixteen years. $6k/$30=200 then 200/12=16.66(yrs).  

So I checked it out and measured mine, and sure enough, theres about an extra 100 square feet.

I don't know all the details but I'd bet the investors agreement with POL does allow them to make these decisions, and I'm glad they do because I'm of a different opinion then you and we are both apparently investors in the same note. 

I wrote a more detailed post about it here: https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/52/topics/346...Matt Roberds

It can be tricky to find the extra time and requires sacrifice, but it is doable.

Can you PM me details?

I don’t know your financial situation or how much you earn a year – but may I assume that an extra $10,000 per month on a continuous basis would free you from your slave wage job and give you the courage to do real estate full time?

Could have charged extra, but elected to view it as my marketing advantage.
