I've never purchased a HUD property before and was curious about any potential patterns or rules of thumb regarding accepted offers.

I don't know about this cap rate projection, at least in CRe-Retail we project out a 10 basis point rise in cap rate for each year the property ages, so the Cap rate may be 5.5% assuming interest rates don't budge, (probably heading higher as US Govt has to deleverage its last 40yr debt run-up, like we did between '45 and '82, and we did again btwn 1899-1920, same 30-40 pattern going back to mid-1800s)I watched all their videos/podcasts/available webinars.

Spatial analysis comes in handy with  real estate for looking at spatial patterns and trends although I know the crappiest parts of the world probably better than the  United States.

See a pattern emerge?

I guess you are very in tune with your marketing.What impresses me the most is you ask me, someone that does organic, these questions, which is brilliant because you are extracting the behavioral patterns of organic traffic, not paid traffic.

@Suzanne Player  if you don't use light colors and marble I have had a problem with just initial and turnover seals on granite. 

In the case of ACH, the refund automatically goes to the tenant's bank account and landlords are unable to submit evidence to fight these disputes.In the case of a card payment, the funds can sometimes get refunded to the tenant directly or may sit in a holding pattern at the bank until the dispute review is over.

Maybe look into patterning with someone on the first property.  

The human brain is evolved to see similarities and patterns in situations even when they are not there.  

You are creating a pattern of success in spite of the typical hiccups that occur in fix and flips.
