Just looking at the numbers, I tend to doubt that a 30k rehab on a deal listed on the MLS would add that much value.

I understand rot tends to spread throughout wood over time.)I responded to the GC via email telling him not to move forward with the plywood.

You'll really need to consult a good commercial broker in the area to make those same estimates for commercial space.Also, leases tend to be longer.

With an exterior leak you tend to see an intermittent type issue.If the supplies are copper lines, have you experienced any other "pin hole" leaks in the building?

I would disagree because real estate agents tend to sell at market value whereas wholesalers tend to sell at below market value.A wholesaler would probably work harder to find you a good deal than an agent since the assignment fee is higher than the commission.

Also, most of these properties tend to be older, so there is more maintenance because of that, not necessarily because the tenants treat the property worse.

I tend to agree with @Basit Siddiqi.

The fees for getting the loan tend to be expensive and will significantly cut into your profits/equity.

I know that condos have a huge HOA fee but tend to be significantly cheaper than single family homes - so it may still be worthwhile?

When analyzing and running numbers, what tends to be the difference in expenses (repairs, cap ex, maintenance...etc) between them and smaller 1-4 unit multis?
