BP is one of the best online real estate investment websites.

I agree with @J Scott and @Manolo D. what anyone can tell you online or in a book is how that person goes about coming up with estimates.

Question: all home expenses are paid by me personally.

Since the loan will not be paid off any time soon by solely making monthly payments, does it make any sense at all to continue renting only breaking even, or should I pull the trigger on the sale and take what I can get for it, even if it means taking a big loss from my purchase price in 2010, just to be done with the house?

Interest accrues if paid late6.

Hi friends,  purchased my first rental in may this year, got it rented in mid June, signed a 12 month contract with tenant, about a week ago tenant sent me an 'official' email that there is a mice/rat problem, although there were cheaper options I went with professionals who were charging me 7-8x only because this is a long term investment and I wanted to get it solved, the pest professionals sealed the attic and set traps, they followed by couple of times to remove traps and refill bait boxes, my tenant now sent me lease termination letter citing health concerns due to mice/rat problem, they paid for current sept month and said that I can keep half the deposit for Oct.What should I do here, they have three small kids so I understand the reason for concern but I am also doing my best to solve the issue, should I go ahead and accept their termination or should I fight it out, not sure if involving lawyer is good as I am trying to make some cash flow and not lose it.. please advice also I am from Texas and would love to hear about TX law on this.

It's funny because the online course has actually covered this question in classes since I originally posted, so I was just thinking ahead I guess.  

New York CityCan a tenant living in an illegal basement sue the landlord for rent that was previously paid (in New York)?

There are online directories where you can look up a prisoner's location (you'll have to know whether they're in federal or state prison) and then you can send them a letter.

They don't get paid by you, the buyer.
