Brent, The 6.3% of sellers is a hard target I agree, but that 6.3% of sellers becomes brighter when figuring out if the seller is an owner, or if it’s a short sale, most likely banks will give it up for a lower price because of that, as well as an owner may be lenient because of personal circumstances. Lots of factors that determine if a barter price can be made! Thus making it a good deal. Am I correct? Thank you, Arthur V.

When deciding to pick a property to invest in, for example a MultiFamily, what are some indicators that one looks into? Of course price, vacancy ratio in that area, rent to value return, and comparable rents, does a neighborhood play a role? If it’s near a home, purchasing a multifamily, and renting out many rooms by one is most profitable. Would this be most profitable near a college/school? Where you can rent it out to students? Does one look at such stuff? What are other things one looks at? I know there is population growth in the area, infrastructure, job increases, but what else? Thanks guys! Answers from veteran investors is gladly appreciated! God bless! Arthur Voskanyan

Does anyone know if Banks & Mortgage companies have stricter rules now a-days regarding lending out equity loans and HELOCS. I’m in San Diego Area, California, does anyone know of a good private mortgage company that pays out the highest possible amount for a home equity or HELOCS? I heard that banks really don’t give out and refuse so based on many creatiria? Thank you in advance all answers are appreciated Thank you, Arthur Voskanyan

Why is investing in metropolitan downtown like SD or LA a bad idea? There are jobs, infrastructure, great location, many jobs for young professionals, of course HOA dues weigh heavily on the return on rental incomes plus other expenses that occur but otherwise, is downtown a good investment considering “location, location, location”? Thank you, Arthur

Brent, What exactly do you mean? Is it a bad investment? Downtown?

What would one recommend investing in a Major downtown, metropolitan area, like downtown LA or SD for generating positive cash flow? And a possible appreciation? I mean ‘location, location, location’ but you have HOA. Wouldn’t downtown be the best location? You have the jobs, infrastructure, bars/clubs, vs a MFH somewhere more inland, where it’s more quite, with low crime rates, schools, etc?

Sounds like someone would make billions for starting a start-up or opening a LLC with AirBnB, or just offering a competitive rate proving vacational rental management agency?? Arthur Voskanyan

How do RE investors keep track of their investment properties. For example, if you have like 10 properties, and you need to record all your operating expenses, nets, location of properties, all sorts of things, is that what investors refer to when they say, organizing my portfolio and such? Do people use specific spreadsheets? Or softwares, like excel? What’s the most common way to keep track of your properties without hiring a professional acocuntant or manager? Arthur Voskanyan
