Painful but probably saved me from a few disasters.What's your go-to stress test before making an offer?

Thanks guys my accountant is adding my interest income to the income of my business, which decreases my paper losses.

But I'd argue the real stress isn't one single thing -- it's bad underwriting showing up during execution.If you lowball your contractor estimates or don't account for change orders, demo surprises, or permit delays, timelines get buried.

Hi BP community,Most investors seem pretty disciplined about stress-testing rent, vacancy, expenses, financing, and hold period.

You can stress test as much as you like, stuff always happens that you either didn't see coming or was completely out of your control.

I am looking for a Safe Base Hit in the Milwaukee market (targeting 53212, 53207, 53214, 53215, 53219) and want to get a gut check on my current stress test.

Hi Drew, I didn't voluntarily decrease rents.

Some investors get stressed holding property in a declining market, even if the numbers say it's fine.

Stress test your budget without the ADU income.

The three questions I would be asking myself are: can I comfortably afford this monthly negative without stressing my finances, is this a property and market I am happy to own for 10 years, and if I freed up this equity, could I realistically do better somewhere else.
