The rental property i am considering, i have to all the utilities every month. 

This information is not about license but its more like a utilization of depreciation methodology.

I am curious for those who have done single family new construction whether or not you chose to invest in any sustainable design or construction strategies for your projects, or if you specifically chose not to.

I’m looking to utilize my HELOC.

I just heard the opposite about LV as well as California, with frothiness in both markets and sustainability in question.

If I had to guess, a room would rent for $700-$900, depending on whether or not you're going to have them pay their share of utilities.

I would agree that being able to utilize leverage is what makes real estate investing so great but I can understand the desire to pay things off so as to not worry about them later.

If you ask how much something costs to repair and he/she can't give you a ballpark number they either don't know or aren't confident enough to give you an answer.First things that come to mind that people may not think of:- Crawlspace or Slab Foundation - Crawlspace makes it easier to relocate utilities and do structural repair if necessary now or in the future.- Cost of work required based on current market rates (for example right now electrical work is very expensive in Charlotte metro compared to historical norms)- Are any code issues with the City of Charlotte or LUESA? 

There are munis and public utilities that impose some serious fees and repairs when title transfers.

I have some interesting type of leads you may be able to utilize.
