My current project is being funded mostly by a private lender that isn't charging me interest.

They both make pizza but one has older parts needing constant work and might not cook as many pizzas in an hour.You would need to show a depreciation schedule to the owner for the age of the equipment today versus when it was new and assign a value to it considering it is in working order.If the seller is going to charge you new equipment pricing for old stuff just go buy your own. 

Upon contacting the attorney for the HOA to find out how much the outstanding lien was, I was told that the attorney charges $150 for this information. 

So I believe the insurance charging you that much of an increase on your insurance is for unfounded reasons.  

If you are working with a contractor that will do the whole job before asking for money he is probably charging too much.

We just finished developing a parcel with 2 duplexes (1 side by side 2/1.5 and 1 over/under 2/1) and the rents we are charging are more than market rent for a house with the same specs.  

Some Madison investors meet informally about once a month at the Great Dane, Fitchburg to chat, hope to see you around  @James Russellis in charge of that

He charged us $1400 to do our taxes last year but Nick and I file separate returns.  

Most carriers that insure things correctly will have some sort of a charge for being a multi-family home. 

Labor charges vary, depend upon the contractor.
