They also mentioned their would by extra cost on their power bill “which they are responsible for” from having to run the well pump for an hour or 2 to shock and flush the system!

I finally received a demand letter from a "nonprofit attorney" representing the tenant, claiming that the tenant was living in uninhabitable conditions—typical for a non-paying tenant, I guess—and now she wants to "renegotiate" the rent and keep living in the same space.She has been filing complaints with various government departments, but all the cases were minor and have been closed.

I am closing on my first philly investment propoerty next week. 

Then I get a written estimate for a local storage locker with a similar amount of square feet of storage because in my state the tenant must pay the reasonable costs of storage before taking possession of the personal property.It might take longer than 15 days because the notice may be the time they have to respond, but they may have an additional amount of time to pay.  

Well not all bad I’ve learned a lot I bought a 2 unit that needed work but it’s taking too long and costing too much.unit 1 is ready but the exterior needs work as well as the second unit. should I sell take a 35% loss and move onContinue saving/investing in repairs repair Just enough to get a HEL Nothing focus on my other business that is making good profit How can I speed/turn this deal around?

We thought about doing a cash out refinance which would give us roughly 40,000 after closing costs.

Not only that but you are going to carry a Heloc in a 2nd lien position and you will not be able to pull out more cash unless you do a cash out refinance to pay off the previous Heloc and take out more cash.85% of the home owners who take out a Heloc refinance in 3-5 years so it makes more sense to simply do a COR and avoid the future closing costs.

Fast close.

Based on my understanding of the Customer functionality in Quickbooks, I agree that for real estate investors who might want a more cost effective option can utilize the Customer features (available in the Simple Start and Essentials version) instead of classes.

Probably will cost you more .
