They rented for a year. 

So I have been looking a wholesale properties to remodel and rent after.

The 3.5% would be due with the first months rent before move in.

My thought is yes because that was time spent renovating the property to prepare it to be rented. 2) Do hours logged include time spent driving to the property to perform renovations and re-stock supplies?

I need help deciding if I should keep my primary residence and rent it out or sell it and then move into a new one, I have already done a cash out refi of 60k if we rent it we would get 150-250/ month profit not counting cap ex and if we sold we could get 5k-20k property is worth 250-280 ARV , the property has brand new roof hvac and hardwood floors with in the last year or two we will also be using va loan to buy. ps my wife wants to sell and I want to rent it out 

Market rents from the appraisal and/or the actual rents need to cover the mortgage payment, property insurance, taxes and HOA (if applicable).4.

Purchase price was 250K and rent was $2225.

Hi all - new to the Bigger Pockets forums, so apologies if this has already been asked before, but wondering if anyone here has experience renting out. a private room in their primary residence?

Having done the barest of research, we've looked into the idea of pooling our money to try and buy a multifamily for my wife and I, my dad, and the two friends, as the two friends also want to stop renting and to start owning, even if it is part of a multifamily/apartment building.

(there is no restrictions on rent increases in TX)any other idea on how to handle this type of situation?
