Factor in commissions, closing costs, buyer subsidies and any repairs requested after buyer inspection, not to mention the ongoing taxes and mortgage interest payments if any.

Used to once it hit about 80% ltv after owning the property for a few years you could request the insurance drop.

Let's say that prior to making an offer to buy a rehab, I hire contractor A to do an initial walk-through with me and come up with a detailed improvement plan (cost and time schedule).Next, I send out bid requests to both contractor A and other contractors for that job.

Andrew Johnson “I use Appfolio out of santa barbara, ca its definitely not free and my property mgmt company passes those costs down to me which I think is around 50-60 bucks a month based on number of units under the service.I am able to see all reports from rent rolls, cash flow statements / trailing 12 month cash flow, tenant ledgers, maintenance requests, dialog between tenants and mgmt staff, resolutions to maintenance requests, move in pictures, move out pictures, or video, and many more features.What I like is that it allows the vendors to be in a dialog/text/chat box so they are prepared (vendor) prior to job assignment with lockbox codes, scope of work and pictures before they even go to the site so we dont waste time figuring things out and run up a huge $$$ bill for lack of efficiency.”

Just what I was wondering, how others see the subject, not my opinion of what CF is.As to your loan commitment with a property at an unknown price, consider:This commitment is to fund the borrower's request up to a loan amount of $50,000 at a loan to value not to exceed 75% of the purchase price established by agreement or sale bid.Another way is to say up to 75% of any purchase price or sale bid up to a loan amount of $50,000.Don't forget your other requirements being satisfactory to lender, title, escrow, taxes, insurance, sale contract or confirmed bid amounts, etc.Good luck.Others, please chime in.How do you see CF in RE?

The US Dollar used to be the standard used in all oil trading world wide.

This was a big hit with the tenants, as we asked them for their input on which things we should address first and took care of their requests quickly.

Toward that end I filed a freedom of information request with my city for a list of addresses that currently do not have water service and have not had water service in at least 90 days.Now how to market to the owners of those vacant houses is another matter all together.Thank you for your time and views.

For example, dog chewing on door frame and deck, husband tried to change oil without asking us and spilled all over the driveway, etc.

Usually they recommend people that they like their work and put through their requests faster.
