CMHA tends to prioritize bedroom count since higher bedrooms can mean higher voucher limits, but you’ll also want to make sure the space still feels livable and flows well.

I’ll also tap private lenders when a bridge is needed or the deal is time‑sensitive.Quick framework:Match lender to exit: refi-to-hold favors local portfolio banks; long‑term rentals with simple underwriting fit DSCR; heavy value‑add often starts with private or hard money, then refi local.Price vs speed: if time kills the deal, prioritize the lender who can actually close fast over saving a small fee.

That would definitely help stress-test deals.Quick question: would you prioritize the cost breakdown first, or the sensitivity analysis?

Prioritize structural and system updates first, then layer on cosmetic or value-add items once cash flow is stable and numbers make sense.

Prioritize value that boosts NOI and appraisal without heavy disruption: pave or gravel the drive for cleaner parking, replace unsafe stairs/decks or at least tighten, paint, and add railings, and give the exterior a quick win with lighting, mailbox numbers, and simple landscaping for curb appeal.

With the market being more unpredictable, I’ve shifted from chasing appreciation to prioritizing steady cash flow and diversification across different properties.

For active flippers or buy-and-hold investors — when time kills deals, do you prioritize speed of funding or interest rate more?

Screen hard, document everything, and prioritize tenant stays and pays.

Due diligence should (always) be prioritized - especially with a discretionary investment that technically does not HAVE to be made.
