The Power of Zero and . . . .anything from Robert Kiosaki make very clear points that the government is running up an increasing tab . . . one that is paid ONLY through taxes . . . unless we change to a very different modus operandi (namely empire building) then taxation is the way to reduce the deficit.  

Knowledge is power. 

@Yacine A. 

I see a lot of people using message apps like whatsapp, groupme, imessage for texting but not really for calls.Have you tried google voice? 

I would never allow them any decission making powers regarding my properties.Tenants call me and I make the decisions on who is to be called if anyone.

And even if the appraisal does, if the banks underwriter doesn't like the comps in the report, or they don't feel that the appraiser provided a strong enough case for the value, the underwriter has the power to over ride the appraisal.

The other side is an investment property and you will pay tax on the gain associated with it unless you do a 1031 exchange and defer the tax by using the process and buying another investment property.You can always move out of the one side and use the entire property as investment for a year or so and then sell and 1031 the entire thing.But The really powerful thing is that if you hang on to that property and continue to live there until you qualify for the primary residence exemption you can then sell and take half of the gain tax free and defer the tax on the remaining gain with a 1031.

A different percentage gives them a majority voting power and more interest in distributions and profits later down the line. 

If you max the HELOC, or even borrow against it, it will likely impact your credit score and DTI and thus your purchasing power for a new home.

But there are more expensive, powerful sources such as ESRI, and of course, the MLS is really useful, but you have to be an agent to get access.
