They will naturally give you something that's bare bones to make it easy for them to weasel out of.

That is very good quality with a ton of natural light!  

Be good natured, summon your sense of humor and go with however they respond.I would often approach a job interview as a chance to make new friends rather than acquire a new income.

Too many competitors, nobody wants to go all the way down to AC to gamble when there are alternatives much closer (and a movement to allow casinos in northern NJ), the city is decaying, etc, etc.  

I say this because 1-2% appreciation is pretty standard in this tertiary market.Other than that, I'm not sure why you'd invest in any of the Texas metro areas due to its coastal nature.

Im looking for alternate ways to recoup the the difference which is roughly $56,000 based on difference between wrong and right square footage.

@Brandon Hall I am reaching out because I was unable to find anything on alternative minimum tax in the forums.

Our situation:8-plex, no washer/dryer hooks ups in units, separate laundry room accessed from the outside with a key, each tenant household is issued a laundry key, rules for use of the laundry are posted in the laundry room and written into the rental agreement, laundry room hours are 8am-10pm, there's a natural gas hot water heater, one electric washer ($1) and one electric dryer ($1) - which is less expensive than local laundromats, one utility sink, one laundry work surface attached to the wall for tenants to sort and fold their laundry, one baseboard heater, one floor drain. 

-An alternative could be to get a rehab loan @ ~150-160k, updating some things and creating a 4th attic bedroom in each. 4 bedrooms are rare but average I could find is about 1300/mo.

So, the alternative is that you should look at every home you purchase as a rental property by ensuring you will have positive cash flow once you move out of the home when you turn it into a rental.
