Well I'm a woman but I'm logic and numbers based, so we probably have a similar problem.

There should be some establish logical chain of progression for advancing.Best regards,Michael

Seems logical that the area will see more redevelopment, but I wouldn't want to be the first.

I don't like any of my options, but logically I know that most investors go into debt to invest because it gives them a better ROI.I am also impatient.  

Seems logical that I can say "No, I do not accept Section 8", and I am merely opting out of a voluntary program, because I am not interested in any more Federal Bureaucracy than I have to.

By now it does need to have the kitchen, flooring and baths remodeled that I'm addressing soon.My 2nd and 3rd rentals I never lived in so I applied my logic of: location, who my target renters would be, "age" (couldn't be anything less than 1980 as I thought that to be a good stop date), and the essentials like age and condition of HVAC, roof, interior, structure, and I'm sure I'm forgetting some other things but you get the idea.

The bank actually reduced the price of the home and paid points to cover the additional flood insurance cost, which seemed logical at the time, but now with the new laws we are worried as they are re-drawing the flood maps, so now looking at anything from no longer in one to massive increase in insurance.  

What is the logic of not including the mortgage payment?

The vacancy issue seems irrelevant, though, unless I am misunderstanding the logic.

It seems logical to me that this would be a good deal to us and the lender, and it's too bad most banks cant see that.
