For longer-term holds or more complex deals, IRR and Cap Rate might take center stage.It’s all about what aligns with your objectives and helps you make the best decisions for your projects.

Your loan will be capped anywhere from 65% ARV to 75% ARV and that will depend on lender, credit, experience, deal spread, risk.In that deal cap you have guidelines like borrower can get 80% LTV is their experience is X and credit is Y, and they can get 90% LTV if their credit is A and exp is B. 

My break even without putting anything away for cap ex, vacancy, or maintenance is $2,395.

For the rest of your life on September 1st you have to wear an LSU cap all day long. 

Their LTV/LTC will be higher and they will likely want to scale with you where the bigger banks will likely cap you off. 70% LTV is just simply too low unless.

Capital call just to buy the next one-year rate cap—good outcome unlikely and expect another capital call.5.

Buying a Multifamily or home in a C, D, area should come with a lot of equity as it is the only reason to get into any deal for these areas as you don't want to spend more than upfront out-of-pocket cost.Look up Cap rate, Cap Expense, Insurance Expense, Vacancy Expense, Tax Expense (which should include a licensed pro at some point), Real Expenses in relation to owning Multifamily real estate, and other things you don't what to be surprised about before doing your first deal. 

Not sure there is a BEST , however I just got 875 for a 2 br all in 60k, and 850 for 1 br in ,my apartment building in East Cleveland, so 20% net caps pretty good

I would also say that there needs to be a cap on the first with regard to rehab draws.

I see absurd maintenance/cap ex numbers from a majority of RE investors (even those with modest experience).
