When you go to get a mortgage, the banker will add the depreciation to your income which increase your buying power.

They have powerful tools for tracking all of your expenses based on location and type and you can customize this to whatever fits your needs.

That's exactly why it is a powerful strategy and if you're willing to live with that reality for a while, it can help pay down your mortgage and build equity at an accelerated pace.  

This is why the PCS orders are so powerful in rental agreements, because weather you buy or rent, every contract requires a year obligation and the reality is the military doesn't care about the year obligation for dwelling because they have more important things like national security to worry about.

There's really only a few reasons I can think of:1) She wants to buy your house herself.2) She has some personal beef with you.3) She wants to protect her position of "power" and make sure everyone knows she's in charge.Getting to the bottom of her reason for trying to block your sale would probably be a good first step.

@Tim BradleyI really wonder where this woman thought she was when she ran over the bed in the middle of the "road".The craziest part to me is that she must have had it floored to power through the front, inside, and back of the house.That's fantastic that insurance paid for lost rent.

I'm loving the excitement of finding the community and the amazing education that I have begun to devour over the last couple of weeks.I grew up in Arkansas with a single mother and lived my formative years in a house built by Habitat for Humanity...so while my real estate buying experience is limited to my wife and I having purchased our first home in 2015, I know first hand the power of a stable home to change lives. 

If this was some random person and not a family member, more power to you in striking a deal that can help solve their problem and net you a profit.
