The higher the return you can generate on that $170K, the more sense it makes to refinance—even at a higher interest rate.

Hi Collin,After managing hundreds of properties, I always keep an eye on short-term rental trends, especially in key markets like the Smokies.

Based on what I can see on HAR, the HOA is $3000-4000 per year, quite a bit lower than what you’re estimating  Hmmm I haven’t yet, just based on what’s on the listing for the unit on Redfin. 

If they are elderly or disabled the court can grant them up to a year to remain in place (they do have to pay use and occupancy during that time).

Or you're just on bad dirt.The worst parts of the city seem to be Irving, especially Las Colinas area, northwest Dallas, Farmers Branch, and Carrollton. 

It can get pretty expensive what would anyone suggest or should I write the lease so that the next tenant depending on time of year should I do not include a specific utility and adjust my rent because of it ? 

I had a good handyman on speed dial.

What measures can I put in place to reduce my risk as a landlord?
