Most of the "guts" of appliances have barely changed in the last 40 years (other than materials going from metals to plastics) - it's almost always the "features" that go bad in appliances.

Week of November 3, 2025Job growth finally bounced back in October — but just barely.

Stuff like "I underwrote 10% for capex" which is $700/yr on a $70k property, or "cash on cash is 22%" which translates to barely $100/month.

Blank profiles on a colleague request is like someone texting you "Hey" and nothing elseBP has made it easy for new members to update their profiles.If someone is new to BiggerPockets BUT has a presence on LinkedIn, Youtube, other social media profiles, website, etc, they can add their links and we can check those platforms to see what they're about.Agreed on filling out the bare minimum - what do you do, what are you looking to do, where are you located, etc.Hopefully new folks find this and implement!

I’m just starting out and have been studying the BRRRR model to see if it’s even realistic right now.I’ve got one property in California that’s paid off, and I’ve been exploring a cash-out DSCR loan as my entry point into scaling, but the math feels just like you described — once the new PITI hits, there’s barely any spread left.I’m trying to learn from people who’ve been through rate cycles before.

I survived the ordeal but barely. 

$112K.That’s double in less than a decade while median incomes barely moved.This isn’t a “high mortgage rate” problem.

I could be wrong but at a bare minimum the smoke detector inspection is required by law to pass title.
