I have a great long-term tenant that has completed a lot of upgrades and intends on purchasing the property as soon as she can bring her own financing(identity theft victim) or I extend her owner financing.Does it make more sense to do a cash out refi or utilize a HELOC? 

I own 4 contiguous lots and I’m building 4 identical homes.

Airtable has a great geomapping feature under one of their blocks.

Over time you'd expect the average to come down, for instance in year 3 we replaced the sewer laterals which bumped up that year's variable costs, but over time that should be a zero maintenance feature and that cost averages out over each subsequent year.Our 2nd property took 18 months or so to finally stabilize so the variable cost data is all over the place, as high as 60% in year one so it's hard to compare.

I'd really like to hear your feedback on how I could potentially make this a more inviting backyard space for me and my tenants.Some key features of the yard include a raised center section approx 25'×15' and a lemon tree.Is the raised area necessary?

I posted a nice inviting description of the home and pointed out some of the best features and then I added requirements. 

Quickbooks offers a feature called "Classes".

I like the search features: https://www.biggerpockets.com/search

We have a nearby town home complex that rents out pretty much the same identical units for $1,750 a month..
