You put in the terms of the lease, the tenant name and email and MySmartMove sends out the background check request and the tenant fills in all their information and pays for the check which is now $44/applicant.

Seller is paying $5,000 of closing costs and a $5000 credit towards a contractor for repairs found during inspection.Here is the part that is bothering me...

These are very personal decisions.I can't tell you how many times I had a seller pay me to go in and redo kitchens and baths, and then get called back by the new buyer to redo the brand new custom work....just because of color.I would just put the house on the market and price it a little high, maybe $20k...?

What are you paying them for?

But if you can get to the $70k-$90k range on a SFH (my bread and butter right now) you can generally get a conventional loan on that.You likely need to pay cash upfront though for the better deals. 

In my opinion, that is a total waste.Instead, I would pay 100% attention to who I am speaking with at the time, remember their name, remember 1-2 talking points about them.

You do not need to pay a lot of money for the information that he provides.If you go to his seminars it is mostly just upselling to get you to buy into another program that will provide you with the information missing from the current program.

Tennessee doesn’t have personal income tax but if we create an LLC we would have to pay state income tax.

My goal when I got the building was to live in my building while having my tenants pay for nearly all of my mortgage.  

With this in mind, should I do a cash out refi on the property in order to buy another property now or should I try to pay it off quicker and add equity, or do nothing at all?
