I insure through Proper Insurance, basically they have a blended commercial & residential insurance product.

Because you can immediately refi that whenever you want to buy your next property.So if you are someone who loves maximum leverage you can still do that but without the restrictions of the 1031.If you are someone who wants to be more risk averse you split your properties between those with minimal leverage and those with maximum leverage and then enjoy a blended rate that is in between the two.

None of these connections happened for me overnight, it took many years and a lot of false starts...but after awhile everything started to blend together and all the different avenues for connections started to feed into each other and my network began to grow exponentially.

The lifting of the cap on Homestead Exemption won't get you until the following tax year and then it will be a blended rate - unlike being based on the full purchase price if you were to go and buy an investment property outright.  

So I'm sure this is a blended rate and your dom for older might lower. 

We are facing the odd juxtaposition of buyer-ish-market factors like high rates and higher DOM, blended with low supply which creates increase demand and therefore.. price. 

Many investors will begin to blend their loans between conventional/agency and non-QM before they reach their limit of 10.  

I have seen income approach appraisals on 1-4 units but they would be on rental properties and typically they blend the income approach value with comps and come somewhere in the middle.

If you calculate what the "blended rate" would be on $200K at 3.75% and $485K at 8.5%, you would get an average "blended rate" of 7.113%.

So it would be good to make sure everything is function or some weird law comes out where it favors the tenant outlandishly (I am not familiar with the rental laws of NY).My suggestion would be a blend of previous statements and our concerns.
