The items he recommends for removal are: shrubsscreen doordishwasherrefrigerator washer/dryer and water hookupcabinet doors (he also advises boarding the cabinets)hose bibs on the front and back of the house (to decrease water costs and prevent tenants from having a car wash business)outlets under a window to discourage tenants from using a window AC unitHe even goes as far as boarding windows that need to be replaced.

OP, while you consider submetering, remember, in CA, landlord pays for the water.So if your competition is paying for water, and your not, unless your rent is a lot less, and/or you have a better unit with many upgrades and/or amenities, you decrease your chances of finding a tenant. 

It depends on your goals and risk tolerance, well and the numbers.You'll definitely be able to scale faster by utilizing leverage via the BRRR method, but you'll decrease the monthly cashflow from this property and you'll now have a loan to pay every month.

People stop building in flood zone, stop rebuilding in hillsides with brush and timber6. as you say investors give up and dump properties making prices of real estate decrease but hold costs only for the rich. 

Hi Ethan, I believe the primary way to decrease house prices is by increasing the housing supply.

Opt for an interest rate of 9.125%, which would result in decreased cash flow and a larger payment amount, with a lesser contribution towards principal.

But the truth is that if the reverse should happen and you have negative cash flow due to some unpredictable event, then your net worth will decrease.

I noticed that there are large, inexpensive homes in Tobyhanna and that the Zestimate valuations of these homes on Zillow is rapidly decreasing, often many thousands of dollars over the course of a month.

By investing outside of your home market you increase your risk and decrease your returns.

Banks have been lending less since Feb. how can you have inflation w/ a decrease in lending?
