Always have to think worse case scenario $500 a month is about 6k a year in cash flow.

Almost 2 months later I received a denial because the unit is not my primary residence.

The first couple months of the year has typically been a little slower. 

If it takes 12 months from initial cost to place tenant, that is 12 months that you had expense without income.  

  (2 of these in 1 year with 8 months free!). 

What if I experienced a net loss for the month and need to supplement the property account with personal money to cover an expense or payment?

This means the buyer has a monthly interest payment of $1250/mo for the next 36 months and would need to refinance the balance at (or before) the end of the 36 months term.

Every market is different, but in Reno, NV for the month of May in 2024, our active inventory was actually very similar to what it was in 2018 when the market was "normal". 

Upfront expenses and monthly payments must be considered when calculating the return on your investment.EXAMPLEYou cash out $100,000 of your equity and use this as a downpayment on a $400,000 investment property.

If it is for a short sale, the lender is using service link to validate the sales price.
