Is it justifiable?

Hey @Anthony Cummings - you could try focusing in the midwest where I've heard property prices are still stable enough to justify better cashflows. 

Fees should be clearly stated, easy to understand, and justifiable.

If a lender would consider the cash flow from the business, I think a larger credit line could be justified.

You will need enough scale to justify the cost, but it's the way to go in my opinion.

id=539FHA loan rules do permit borrowers to have more than one FHA loan under approved circumstances that can include changes in family size that may justify the purchase of a larger home.

However, you can always incentives them to make your tenants why increasing their rent is justifiable, I usually would give them more access to a storage room or do a minor touchup paint for the unit just to bring in that new/fresh vibe.

Since you are the one hiring the appraiser directly (and not a bank) he/she will likely be more willing to accommodate you provided your desired appraised value is still reasonable and the appraiser can justify it in today's market. 

I would like to cash out refi, but the rates have gone up so much it's hard to justify it.

I wish I was big enough to justify that at this point.
