A $10M project repurposing a former grocery store into a dynamic dining and social hub in the heart of FUSE.🚀 Big things are happening in Gastonia—what are your thoughts on these developments?

In preparation of this work, we have voted on a special assessment for 2025 and 2026 to raise our reserves.

Without the tenant explicitly stating (preferably in writing) you can trash whatever is left, you likely have a requirement to store items left behind. 

Meaning you'll have to store their property.

Manage their properties Provide welcome gifts/ goodie bags for their guests before check in Hauling extra supplies/ misc items to return to stores or other properties--Any other ideas that I can pitch to make myself more marketable?

Sometimes tenants do something that attracts pests (eg food is improperly stored, trash and food are left out, etc.  

Unless you supply the 3M ones I guarantee the tenants are going to use the Dollar Store ones that leave torn paper everywhere. 

With the right tax strategy, you can maximize deductions and reduce liabilities, while having the right insurance and reserves in place will protect you from unexpected costs.By Implementing a quarterly financial review to assess performance and make adjustments to avoid cash shortfalls.

I've included an example below to help illustrate this.So different lenders have different rates (which do vary even for DSCR loans) but these are factors they all consider.See example below:DSCR < 1Principal + Interest = $1,700Taxes = $350, Insurance = $100, Association Dues = $50Total PITIA = $2200Rent = $2000DSCR = Rent/PITIA = 2000/2200 = 0.91Since the DSCR is 0.91, we know the expenses are greater than the income of the property.DSCR >1Principal + Interest = $1,500Taxes = $250, Insurance = $100, Association Dues = $25Total PITIA = $1875 Rent = $2300DSCR = Rent/PITIA = 2300/1875 = 1.23If a purchase, you also generally need reserves / savings to show you have 3-6 month payments of PITIA (principal / interest (mortgage payment), property taxes and insurance and HOA (if applicable).
