I am looking for something durable, practical, and of course inexpensive to either install for the first time or replace.

The one I have ($25 bucks) is titled, "Interior Home Improvement Costs".

Vegas is a great market for a buy and hold strategy, rental demand is high, and you could sell via owner carry loans as people will pay premium for the non bank qual loans as well as higher interest rates, improving your returns.

We're always looking to improve our software, so I was hoping you could provide some more feedback on this thread.Thanks in advance!

We quickly found out that it does not always help someone to improve their score and get them into a home, only to have them lose it in 12-24 months because of the bad habits that got them there in the first place.

You may have an increased rent upside, but watch out, as that could lead into a higher vacancy factor.Can you reduce any of the expenses by negotiating better rates with service providers or can you improve or force the appreciation through capital improvements?

Capital Expenses - initially, when you acquire a park, you can do all the immediate improvements to the park, but you should have a line item in your expenses allocated for future capital expenses. 

Does anyone know about this practice?

I am analyzing all properties at the up coming auctions in WA state and will begin attending in person auctions every Friday morning to learn the process and practice finding deals.
