I recommend you do this annually to adjust for utility increases and other variables.

I'm in WA state and we used to do some of those but don't now that the homestead exemption increased substantially, making it difficult to recover funds if the loan stopped performing.

I haven't shopped around yet, but I imagine an umbrella policy for the pool would increase costs.I do have a smallish home maintenance fund saved of about $20,000 so could sustain any unforseen expenses for a tiny bit.

How much will you equity increase compared to your rehab and holding expenses. 

I'm currently researching how to effectively navigate this appeal process.A bit more context:The property has a zoning permit dated 1/16/1956, which includes a variance recognizing it as a three-family unit.I do not possess a building permit that explicitly authorizes use as a three-family dwelling.I'm seeking advice tailored to the Philadelphia, PA area, particularly regarding this situation.

However, seeking knowledge from experts in the field can assist you in building a successful portfolio.
