Hi all. Property Class B, currently has Terracotta/ Saltillo square floor tiles throughout the entire house including both bathrooms. The tiles have thick 1/4 in grout lines and don’t look too appealing. I will be placing LVP , but should I keep this tile in the bathrooms or place LVP over it ? Replacing the tile with a different tile will be extra labor cost so want to avoid that. I always thought tile in bathrooms Worked best due to moisture.

Do I just look at the loan cost section of the disclosure to compare to the average 2-5% average closing costs? if so this section comes out to be 3.8% of selling price.

Thank you all for a wealth of information on here. My question comes in regards to the closing costs. Everywhere I read it’s from 2-5%, but my lender , 30 yr conventional , investment property , has closing costs out of pocket $17k for 235k property. $9k total loan costs and $8 other costs. When the average range of 2-5% is mentioned is that only for total loan costs ?
Thank you in advance
I would definitely rather invest in local markets If it was more affordable and landlord friendly, but from my research opportunities in other states are much better. Single family in my local market is minimum 650-700k before renovations, multi family starting close to a million.
