I provide a service that can only be installed in new construction MDU development. 

The bank will let your monthly debt service be up to 45% of your monthly income. 

The old policy was better IMO for the regions, such as Lehigh Valley, that are further from the DIG main meeting - that old policy allowed those new to DIG to get a sample of the meetings they would be more likely to regularly attend.

Amazon Web Services had a 15 hour outage last year.

I don't know how the Service would like a scenario like that.The most common scenario we get with situations like this is that if she can be patient, then she moves out of that house for a year and rents it. 

My Smart Move is pretty decent service. 

What is usually done on pre-foreclosure services you make a price which includes their balance owed whether it is County Property Tax, Mortgage payments, or somebody else. 

Option 2 will cost you attorneys fees, filing fees, service of process fees, etc.... some of these can be collected on the back end if you get a judgment, but the attorneys fees typically aren't collectible. 

If I replace it now while living in the house, can I begin depreciating the remaining life of the roof when I put it back into service as a rental again?
