These are some of the incentives I have structured with home sellers that had the most impact:- Offer a no-cost mortgage (agree to pay for closing costs)- Offer a below market interest rate mortgage program (agree to pay discount points or fund a interest buydown program)- Offer to pay X months of the new homebuyer's mortgageFor other ideas, look to the builders in your area as they are using every conceivable incentive to move their inventory.For more ideas, check out this article in USA Today (http://www.usatoday.com/money/economy/housing/2006-07-27-new-homes_x.htm).

It gives a clearer financial impact of a $500 studio going vacant over a $2,200 3bdrm in DC.But, if you're running numbers to schedule actions (advertising, cleaning) or measuring PM effectiveness (improvements in re-renting speed), then I group them by type (studio, 1bdrm, 2bdrm...) which I think just helps cluster the comparable products closer together.I don't add total rental days-- I generate an average -- mostly because I don't think the qualitative difference will offset the difference in the amount of time it'd take me to run the numbers.How's Harrisburg, by the way?

Fast forward to the age of 22, when most people are graduating, and have either:1) financed education = student loan debt2) paid cash for educationYou will have impeccable credit, several properties under your belt, and will be on your way to building wealtheither way you slice it, you have tied up your credit(which impacts your capability to borrow), or you have tied up your cash(which impacts your ability to purchase).Rather than paying more for theoretical knowledge, I would get my Sales Assoc license, build credit, open a Roth IRA, educate myself on macro economics, stocks, and the banking system.

Again, no body can really predict the future...

On my street (AE zone), 2-3 houses flood regularly during storms while others have not been impacted whatsoever, yet all are required to buy flood insurance.

If business is good (which it sounds like it is from how busy you are), why do you continue to wear all those hats when it's impacting your goals?
