What would you have done if your price was too high and you didn't know your roof was keeping people from making an offer to begin with?

Sometimes a little incentive can make them leave peacefully.Raise the Roof (Rent, that is): If local laws allow, crank up the rent to make them consider greener pastures.

If you are tracking depreciation for purposes of repairs and maintenance (like anticipated timing of a new roof for example), you could probably get away with using excel and then just manually booking a journal entry.

And you know you lose a whole lot of square footage because of the roof angle, right?

You can keep all your properties under one roof, so to speak.Cost Considerations: Keep in mind that setting up an LLC comes with some costs, like filing fees and compliance stuff.

Recently, we had a leak from the A/C in the attic.

Everybody thinks they understand real estate, after all its just walls and a roof?  

Texas had some hurricanes and I have properties (Market value $300K, Roof damages $25K).

The 5% down loan allows them to go the conventional route and most are skipping home inspections and have agents who are unfamiliar with the issues they can run into with Knob and Tube wiring, lead paint and older windows/roofs. 

I thought I'd squirrel some money away in case of a big ticket item like water heater, roof, etc.
