I just did an assumable loan.

In my state, we have to produce an itemized list of all expenses that came out of the deposit within 30 days of tenant moving out.  

A link to FilePlace is at the bottom of every page, so it is easy to find.If you have technical issues, send an email to [email protected] and someone will help you.

I have a "Cabin" just an hour outside of Houston, beautiful property, secluded on 14 wooded acres.

When I was tracking mileage, I used an ap called MileIQ.

BiggerPockets is indeed an excellent platform for expanding your knowledge and networking.

while the suggestion of an all temp spa might make sense for your climate.

At least your work is going towards benefitting yourself rather than largely benefiting an employer. 

The one residential is moving out, so I could go with an owner-occupied FHA or conventional loan.  

I recently purchased an investment property and as I was adding the property to my BiggerPockets account there was a follow-up question that asked, "Did you work with any real estate professional (agents, lenders, etc.) that you'd recommend to others?"
