Connecting to the idea of "cash" offer, does anyone have a legal soft proof of funds letter (pre-approval) that is editable and will work in all 50 states?

This was cheaper and faster than eviction for me, left me with a clean and rent-ready unit, and saved their credit.If they had demanded $3,000 in cash, in addition to being let off the hook for unpaid rent, and the return of their security deposit, then I would fear that I had developed a soft reputation and I would fear that I was becoming a target for professional tenants. 

@Lisa Sluss reasonably others suggested a cash out refi on the rental with an asset based 30 yr rental lender, called, portfolio, soft money, some here called dscr based lenders.One such lender is finance america, Lima one.

Has anyone used Freedom Soft?  

In my opinion its best for basements, easy to lay and they have great color options, they are soft on the feet and not cold and hard like concrete or tile.

Hello BP Nation,For a small (8 homes) luxury development, would a fair ballpark percentage for soft costs be 18%?

I'd choose a soft sandy color, in a flat or satin finish, which will make it even less noticeable that you've painted over the wallpaper.

It appears that the portion of the increase in prices directly attributable to the hard and soft costs (materials, labor, time, capital, etc) of improving the property are the approximate amount that the indeces are being "inflated" relative to the circumstances of the average, non-rehabbing homeowner.To demonstrate this, let's say I buy a beat-up rehab in an upward market for $200K, put in $75K in all costs, including capital costs, materials, labor, and sell it for $350K net proceeds.
