For instance, you could be paying $12k and pay much less tax than paying $5,850 just for prep. 

Or in rare instances - compensate your broker directly. - Due diligence.

This won’t help in this instance but going forward I always paid the water bill but with a section in the lease that indicates they need to reimburse me within 30 days of being presented with the bill. 

For instance, starting at $775, a 3% yearly increase means it would take over a decade to close a gap of approximately $325.Considering how much you value this tenant, a compromise approach seems most sensible: initiate with a slightly higher increase—perhaps 5% or a flat $50 per month—to narrow the gap more quickly.

For instance, in Pennsylvania you hold the property for a year and the problem goes away.

For instance.

You spend from the HELOC as usual, and any unspent funds at month’s end reduce your balance - but can be drawn back if needed.Most people:Monthly deposits: $10,000Monthly expenses: $10,000Average daily balance reduction: $5,000Say for instance a HELOC at 7%, that saves just $29/month.

This is my recommendation to people in certain instances - not saying this is you but many wait until you get an email that the investment was lost to foreclosure.

For instance, Airdna estimated $45K in revenue for one of my cottages, but I ended up earning $80K last year after adding a hot tub.

In many instances the entitlement process requires HOA's or PUD's to obtain the necessary zoning approvals to build a housing community.
