On the land deals are you paying interest?  

How much do you need to pay to HOA every time you rent? 

I will of course comply with any required laws here, but am I required to pay for specifically her chosen wall anchors?

Those with higher credit scores don’t want them trashed over pet damage they don’t pay for.

Hi All, I am a 29-year-old working a W2 job that pays well.

Seems like cancer patients and transplant patients want MTR...may not want to stay in hotels...may want someplace pet and family friendly and want a host with a heart that can shorten their stay---Say YEAH....or extend it, without paying big penalties.....and these are people often networking with other patients and families who may be your clients too. 

•I plan to put 20% down on this new property, which means I’ll be left with about $80,000 in cash after the purchase.Given this scenario, I’m trying to decide whether to pay cash for the second property or continue with the 20% down strategy .

They accept financing so all cash is not necessary and we are asking them to paying for closing costs. 

You'll get high quality tenants who can pay their own rent and they pay on time.

The proper way to approach this appraisal problem is (summarized below):* find reasonably similar comps - find relatively recent duplex sales in the Subject's market area and adjust for differences, based on market response (i.e. how much more/less buyers would typically pay for certain characteristics like size of units and lot, location, quality/condition, etc).* In the absence of similar comps - go back in time to find any similar comps, no matter how long ago and adjust for market trend differences (appreciation, etc), as well as other adjustments as typical (size, bed/bath, condition/quality, location, etc).* Go to nearby market areas/neighborhoods and find reasonably similar duplex sales and adjust for market area/neighborhood differences as required - along with the other adjustments.* Find reasonable 3 or 4 unit (not more than 4, and they can use sfr's, but those are typically not as good for comparison.
