The other thing I have done especially if we are approaching winter months is just tell the insurance company that we will have them done in spring.

I was approached by Avantstay and wondered if anyone in this forum has had experience with them from owner point of view. 

Until then, I'll be trying to absorb everything I can to fine tune my approach and prepare for managing REI business post-acquisition.

Are there any creative ways you’d recommend for me to identify and approach motivated sellers or uncover foreclosures?

I tracked the owner down and approached him at his Jewelry store.

Hi to everyone,I would like to ask that ,my banks in my country (Greece) are unable to provide refinance options for the BRRRR method (Buy, Rehab, Rent, Refinance, Repeat), what alternative realistic strategies can I consider for implementing this investment approach?

Unfortunately experience means you've made some costly mistakes :-) So, to avoid those costly mistakes, when I take on a new approach in investing, I buddy up with someone that already has experience doing them.

The property will be strictly for investment purposes, not a primary residence.I’ve been looking into two potential financing options:Hard Money Lenders (HML) – I’m drawn to this option for its speed in closing, but I know the rates can be higher.DSCR Loans – This seems like a great option for long-term rentals, but I’m unsure if it’s the right fit for my auction property since it might need some rehabbing.I’m also considering purchasing through a land trust or an LLC to add a layer of protection and privacy.So, my questions are:What’s the best way to approach financing for auction properties?

Can try to reposition to Class B, but neighborhood may impede these efforts.Vacancy Est: Historically 10%, but 15-20% should be used to also cover tenant nonpayment, eviction costs & damages.Tenant Pool: majority will have FICO scores of 560-620 (approaching 22% probability of default), many blemishes, but should have no evictions in last 2 years.
