Hi Despite the 50 basis point drop from the fed earlier this week, I noticed a few lenders mentioned the rental property rates went up because of the uncertainty with the corona virus and the stock market. 

It might take a week of Googling everyday, a lot, to get an idea of what he can do to get his credit score higher. it will take time...

Possibly start a small business and build it up until you don’t need to step into the office every day to get paid.

The tenant calls me everyday for something going wrong with the washer-which I thought was ridiculous because the appliance itself is fairly new. 

If you don’t buy or sell RE everyday it would be hard to compete with someone who did.

I have a rental property that Is currently leased on a month to month basis that I used to live in but have since moved out.

@John TiernanDepending on what you will be able to charge for rent and what the ongoing maintenance costs of your property, you likely got a good investment on your hands if you are all in for $35,000.Regarding your question on what is deductible - It depends.it seems as if your property was not "placed in service" until after the rehabs were completed.If this is true - then the costs to improve the place need to be added to basis and depreciated over it useful life.

It’s handles on a case by case basis.

Larger and you feel more open, but on a $ psf basis, your rate starts dropping.  

In most cases, a person who can't do basis stuff like that moves to a condo.
