If your PM is recommending a reduction of $100 on a $2000 a month rental property but you don't want to lose that money every month.

A property that has been on the market for months, with no price reduction, isn't a property I want to compare to.

Work in a balance reduction if you pay it off early?

Expect significant renovation, so having a reliable renovation crew is worth its weight in gold.

I'd recommend looking at costs. your build cost is going to be well over other homes because of the fixed costs like slab, Hvac, roof, etc. check the market drivers and weight the benefits of short term versus long term. long term is no furniture and help pays mortgage but at this size it doesn't really cover everything. we didn't find a lot of economies of scale in single family detached. can you build more than one unit?

Sure I have doubts now that I’m midway through renovations…but I feel the contacts I’ve gained in a new city (electricians, plumbers, etc) are worth their weight in gold.

1) Renting garage units2) Additional Pet Fees3) Adding flooring insulation in the upper unit led to improved efficiency and sound reduction for lower tenants.

Debt Reduction - at the very least, another human being is paying down your mortgage and increasing your equity.

It's like asking whether you can lose weight if you don't exercise.

I don't want to make concessions/value reductions based on hypothetical work that they could then vote against.
