.* Since you didn't significantly change the condition or quality of the property, any increase in value would be due to either you paying under market value originally, or appreciation due to buyers paying more for similar properties in the area.

Tenant didn't also pay the current lease .What can I do to get the lease and make sure the tenant moves at the end of their lease. thank you 

It may sound nice to pay a 6% management fee but the extra fees can add up to be more than the other company that charges 10% with no additional fees.

I will take a tenant that pays their own bills over a Section 8 tenant any day of the week.

I have been in talks with a GC in Georgia and his method of building is: He builds everything at costs and doesn't include any markup or fees, he oversees everything, I only supply funding, and we split 50/50 the profits after paying back the bank and all other associated fees.Since I am only supplying the funding for the deal, is there a way I can structure doing this so that this is considered passive income for myself since I won't be involved with the construction or overseeing the project?

So I had to pay the fence contractor to come back out and redo that section. 

Asking for the plus and minus of these 2 options.Option 1: Save cash and pay off mortgage.

I guess my question would relate to the wisdom of pulling the trigger now and paying more for a property that could well be purchased for significantly less in another 3-6 months or maybe even longer if the down trend is expected to last a few years.

Would rather hold to collect rent with depreciation write offs and build wealth than sell to pay capital gains 

Our last vacancy actually took weeks longer to rent out than expected, but it was late summer/fall and it was advertised significantly higher than previous long-term tenant had been paying.
