Probably the same reason hotels sell their unbooked ADA compliant rooms at a discount. 

As for property taxes, I won't say it hasn't ever happened, but I would think on most properties it would be very unlikely to negotiate those to a discount by the original seller. 

The price is not going to be discounted due to the designer's ineptness sadly.

At 26, having 4 properties and looking for more is quite the story.KeyBank man should be ashamed of himself.I'd disagree with some of the assumptions in this thread.Rate locks don't need to be for more than 30 days.  45 days can cost you a quarter point depending on the lender and it's really not necessary.Always remember that origination points and discount points are two distinctly different things.For us, some origination fees can be just 2 points and some are just 3 points.

Accountants in a similar situation probably have some advice that can help make sure you set yourself up from a software implementation, bookkeeping, lender sourcing situation.

My preference would be areas with tech workers, software professionals, etc. 

TenantCloud seems to be a hot topic, here is another posting about it.https://www.biggerpockets.com/...For 1 property I wouldn't even look at TC or any other software that charges a monthly fee.

It would be interesting to hear about the technology landlords use for leasing, property management software, unattended leasing, AI, deposits, and more.

The software system we use is Propertyware but I know other systems like Appfolio have account keeping.  

I always get emails asking me to add discounts.
