@Arthur Schwartz I’m searching for information on holding a mortgage.  

Hi Deepak, I know I’m a bit late to the conversation, but I wanted to provide some more information regarding hiring a property manager.My best advice would be to start by checking out NARPM or using the Property Management Finder here on BiggerPockets.

.”- Rick and Ricky, SFR gurus“We bought this house in Toledo for $31,500 and sold it 10 years later for $34,000”:-) sorry my Toledo friend :) This sounds just like one BP member who posts regularly..."20 caps" everywhere.

I see you posted this a month ago but wanted to add two cents in case you're still on this.If you're building a new home, is it in the same spot as the old one?

Hello,This is my first time posting.

Tim - I think the appraiser may look at the assessor's office information to see the square footage, bedroom count, etc...

BiggerPockets is the best platform out there to build a team, stay informed, and like you said, soak up all info like a sponge.

What if instead of refi there was a construction loan or post rehab 2nd or heloc was used.  

If so, their banking information (name, account, routing number) is on this.Unfortunately, most landlords tend to find this is a hopeless situation and tend to write off damages on next years taxes.Gail

Thanks for posting.
