Real estate's "gross rent multiplier" is Wall Street's "sales to revenue",  "cap rate" is roughly "P/E ratio".When evaluating markets and investments I tend to start with GRM (or lazily the 1% rule), then attempt to return a cap rate based on assumptions about costs, then I work my way to multiple years of projections (assumptions about inflation, amortization, tax benefits, etc), and if I am partnering with one of my smart friends I have to pull up an IRR (internal rate of return).I also look at regional employment levels, median income to rent ratio in the zip code etc. 

You can grow so much faster if you focus on single platform and it is not late to expand to multiple platforms once you get too big to be on one platform.

Common fees will include a set-up fee, a leasing fee for each turnover or a lease renewal fee, marking up maintenance, retaining late fees, and more.

Just FYI :-)Yeah I know Simpson makes a structural screw for hangers now, with a hex head, but I’ve been seeing a lot of regular deck screws used lately and obviously if they’re not structural they don’t have the shear strength needed to support a deck.

My goal is to stabilize, refinance within 3-5 years, and offer strong returns to lenders.Your point about targeting SDIRA investors and high earners is interesting—how do you typically find and connect with these types of lenders?

Quote from @Michael Diossa: @Remington Lyman Do you feel Single family is a better return on investment than Multi's in Ohio.When all is said and done, the numbers are often much closer than people realize.

Show the lease agreement, show his rent payment history, and show any written evidence from the tenant that he admits to being late/unpaid.

Perhaps in return they collect an acquisition fee,  collect a construction management fee & share in a portion of the upside.

The human race has historically been poor at predicting future, so it's wise to prepare for multiple scenarios.Mortgage rates in 2025 may decrease slightly if inflation stabilizes and the Federal Reserve eases rates, though they are unlikely to return to pre-pandemic lows.

Copies of copies of fake pay stubs and bank statements are a real problem lately.
