They won't care you used your cash to pay down another loan.I will invest the cash you have and the cash flow from your properties in something safe (hopefully you can get ~1% interest) while you wait for your next deal.

Who cares.

I'm not trying to guess which area you fit into, I don't particularly care.

Some urgent matters came up that I had to take care of but I'm back in the saddle again. :-) Thank you all for the advice.

If not I would be careful about including it in your numbers.

If the wind blows heavily, I used to live in Houston and now in Colorado-both high wind areas, it can easily peel at least several courses off.Low wage workers, and let's face it roofers are relatively low wage, are NOT CAREFUL in their work habits.

However I would suggest to be very careful and seriously take your time to TRULY understand the market.

They don’t seem to care what they get in terms or returns - just that they get something.

I would have a property manager taking care of the rest of it.

Be careful with your monthly expenses. $5,000,000 is a lot of expenses for one month.
