Vacancy kills your returns....so you want to do everything you can to minimize the down time if you can.I think there are some other strategies to implement as well. 

Also, if anyone has any books they would recommend, I am using this down time to study and learn, so I am very open to suggestions.  

I think focusing on getting it done fast is most important but that’s because I decided I want 10k per month out of a deal and want enough downtime in between so I don’t get burnt out.

It rents year round with little down time.

Downtime for rehab should always be figured into your equation with regard to cost and vacancy during this time4.

You need to know market rent and what condition to bring your building space up to in order to have the shortest down time as possible.Preparing now will avoid stress later.

A missed payment sucks, but tenant damage can easily equal 6 months rent, even a year+, not to mention the down-time to do repairs.

You get the dregs at that point and the damage to the house becomes a real issue and I don't want to deal with that sort of thing.The best thing to do for us is to plan for the downtime.

That way you are using the permanent as the temp saving some money and you won't have any downtime waiting for the power company to change over.You probably can't do that with an overhead as it would be too dangerous for the framers/siders.

One of the most important aspects of a website is downtime (servers down) and load time (how much time a webpage takes to load).
