With the help of the agent we negotiated a list of needed updates to an older apartment building for electrical and plumbing retrofits to keep up with more modern standards.

FYI, the house is in a PD (planned development) district-Regarding homeowners insurance - do I need a special policy or add on to standard policy? 

I know a few of mine are Family, Health, and personal growth, but I am curious as to what others are thinking.

Whether it's about real estate investing, personal finance, or any other topic, I want to empower others with the tools they need to succeed without expecting anything in return.However, not everyone shares this philosophy.

And a washer & dryer are critical for those of us traveling away from home for more than a few days.One of the things I love about our small 2-person Airbnb is that I never have to worry about big, illegal, violent drug parties or families having a field day jumping up and down on our beds.If single people or couples are likely to be visiting Branson, they make awesome guests. 

Even if you are filing an extension I have tried to put some things together here that will help you DECREASE your personal tax liability and INCREASE your income for qualifying for a Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac type of loan.This post is designed to help persons who may need a Fannie/Freddie loan on a 1-4 unit property.

The reasons are 1- less competition in commercial2- greater property types lead to more opportunities for “value added”3- commercial net income projections include expense for property management, 1-4 unit residential usually do not4- greater “universe” of properties to buy allow higher minimum return standards Of course residential is MUCH easier to successfully deal in, and with reasonable leverage has small downside risk, so I 100% agree that most investors should stick with residential.  

However, nothing tops in-person connection.

🧮It sounds like you have these priorities for your next PNW property besides the standard FI road map:- Something that has positive ROI (appreciation + cash flow + tax deductions + loan paydown) purchased at $1M with 20% down and ~6.8% interest.

I'm a numbers person with decent negotiating, project management, and administrative skills, and I was counting on those talents plus some education to be enough to get taken seriously.
