We are both physical therapists and we do not find it wise to have 100% of our income be reliant on being physically able to work (disability insurance can only provide so much comfort).

Hi Account Closed for reports or you can connect with almost any title company that can give you various sales reports so you can get familiar with the market sales across the Valley.  

So basically like the title says I won an arbitration claim against the sellers.  

When purchasing via a lease option, do you get the seller to sign a option agreement and then record it, and not actually go through the closing process with a title company until you exercise your option years later?

Investopedia is on the right track saying that the rule is supposed to ensure it covers your mortgage, but it's much more than just the mortgage, it's the insurance, taxes, maintenance, etc costs that are in addition to your mortgage.

My ex-wife (and myself but I am not on title) have a rental house.

Then it seems it would be worth it, with the added property tax and Insurance cost ( possibly $175 / month) for a total of $652 cost.

I was able to fill each space with photographers, hair salon, insurance agent, recording studio, background check company, cpa, medical massage and a 3000 sq ft floor to a non-profit dance studio.I often bring the group together for happy hours on my dime, networking meetings etc.  

I have about ~40K equity in the rental and owe about $157K on the loan, but the monthly rental income only covers the mortgage payment + insurance + taxes + an additional $75 a month, which I put aside for repairs and anything that may come up.  

Working in both insurance and looking at investments, I've never seen the county numbers match up with the actual value of the home.
