My girlfriend and I have stable jobs with the government and we max out our retirement accounts (TSP, Roth IRA, HSA), and we’re now looking for ways to deploy our extra, after-tax savings.

Oh, and I haven't taken into consideration the write off of the additional interest on the cash out refi. 

I am going to use Robert Kauffman for an addition on a SFH I recently purchased in Tucker.

And the best part is, in addition to getting paid to learn, I'm providing a service that will help someone who is sick.

Obviously we’ll tell management tomorroww morning and request an additional pesticide sweep of our place, but is there anything else we can do??

I would recommend starting a self directed IRA.

Now I have the funding and am looking for additional deals. 

In addition to sites like this Ive found that driving the areas personally is the best bet to really get a sense of area. 

This is just a theoretical that popped into my head, but for those markets where rents are relatively low, would it be reasonable to take on a tenant with the typical one month's security deposit, but in addition you add $50 or $100/month to the rent to build up the deposit till it hits two month's worth?
