I would personally not be nervous there, but everyone has their own standards.My tenant did state that they would be willing to pay for the door and the installation, so I don't have much of a reason to say no to them, other than not liking the look and being nervous that someone could do some damage by putting it in wrong.

I know you're anxious to get someone in your first rental, but it is better to go vacant than to place the wrong tenant.

(the cost of such policy as quoted to me by multiple companies + the cost of dwelling/fire is STILL less than what insurance costs me now)c: Once this is done, seek out a proper refi.My question is this, is this the wrong strategy?

Good luck proving me wrong.

I totally agree with Scott Freer I think you also (and don't take this the wrong way) but maybe think of toning down a bit.

I tried to PM you but for some reason it's saying something went wrong when I try to send.

I attempt to estimate my tax bill every year and I am ALWAYS wrong.

If you are referring to the ability to terminate the tenancy at your discretion sooner, a M2M tenant would generally be the correct choice, but perhaps the wrong approach.

You are asking the wrong person.

I don't think you can go wrong with Katy, Cypress or Sugarland (I have done deals in Katy and Cypress).
