Additional items, Pennsylvania:1. 

Not the traditional BRRR, but way more passive, and still great returns. 

Appraisal fees do seem to be getting higher.Looks like you have offered to pay much of the closing costs, including some that has traditionally been paid for by the seller, so as HOA transfer fees, survey, and title insurance. 

Traditional financing, 5% down How did you add value to the deal?

Seems that Google holds back on their gmail features (even county recorder sites give me options to customize line items into a CSV file which goes right into Goog sheets).

This has worked fine so far and I'm hopeful that they will build in this functionality in the near future.How do you determine what useful lifespan to apply to various CapEx items, @Genny Li?

Legally you will need to provide proof of everything you are taking out of their deposit, and it can't be for the new value, it must be for the depreciated value of the item.
