Try to decide on something that will set the tone for the whole house, like the counter top or the flooring and then you will have far fewer colours and patterns to choose from to stay within budget.

You are setting yourself up for disaster if something in the house needs repairs or if you end up with a bad tenant whom does not pay the rent.

If a unit was to become vacant does this percentage still apply from the last rate it rented at or can you set the rent to whatever you want now that it is vacant? 

Have money set aside for when things go awry.

I would reccomend finding a crew that specializes in putting the shells together, Deltec has a number of set crews they can help you finding. 

It is coming up on Winter, do I need to get this done ASAP before cooler weather sets in?  

As for the mold/mildew issue, I installed a timer with different time settings for the fan that was pretty cheap($15), works pretty well and that my tenants seem to like.

or    'All I can get is crappy short-term adjustable rate commercial financing on my house because I own the house inside an LLC.'

After a few deals, I'm looking for the best way to structure this moving forward and would like experts preferably under one roof to help me set this up.

Has anyone tried to set up something a bit higher yielding such as a CD ladder?
