If you choose a cheaper fix now, keep a close eye on things to ensure no new issues pop up.

The following is from Stessa in regards to your situation:"The cost basis used for depreciation in this situation is the purchase price of the home plus certain closing costs, plus qualified capital improvements (such as a new roof or other renovations).

I believe in taking matters into my own hands by strolling around the property alone to have a firsthand look at the exteriors and analyze the general condition.During these inspections, I pay close attention to important details like drainage, brick or siding condition, sidewalks, and even resident profiles.

I expect the time between close and sale to be 3-4 months.

You may want to consider this before paying $1-$2k for an appraisal and not have the loan close. 

Mesa and Chandler have decent homes in good areas with decent rent while still being close to everything.

Each closed sale symbolizes more than a mere transaction; the median sale price stands tall at $640,000, marking an impressive 11.30% surge from the previous year.

I shouldn't have to explain why but I will. 5 houses with $100k down won't be $500k, once you factor closing costs & reserves.

I want to replace my income within a reasonable timeframe, so I'm looking at a syndication mentorship with a "guru" who claims I'll close my first syndication deal on a commercial multi-family property within 6 to 12 months.
