We're starting to see the fallout from this - borrowers cant exit deals without taking a loss but are refusing to accept this.SC seems to be doing OK at the moment, but Louisiana is seeing price declines.

Let me do my best to break it down into bite sized chunks.1) Your property tax increase is going to be 2% of the original assessed amount that breaks down to be .024% of the purchase price.

That all said, the asking prices are just that, asking prices.

Was sold above the asking price                   within days of listing.High ROI: Achieved a 50% return on investment due to low renovation costs and increased sale price.Investor PerspectiveRecognized the potential others overlooked by seeing beyond the property's initial appearance andm aximized profits by investing wisely in visible, impactful areas.

I applaud Brian for personally reaching out to respond to the situation and make sure things are addressed going forward. 

Fast forward two months, and now the property is rented out, so I decided it was time to refinance.

However, there is a specific deal Which I find hard to understand the ARV for.It is a Single Family Home, 2 Bedroom 1 Bathroom, 850 SQFT.These two comps have a price gap I find hard to understand, even when considering the difference in renovation level.If anyone knows this market well enough to understand the cause of this difference, and if it might be due to an issue with the location, or if there is anything I am missing.Comp 1 - 1011 Elm Street, Burlington, NC, 27217 (120K)Comp 2 - 1109 Walnut Street, Burlington, NC, 27217 (120K)Comp 3 - 1505 N Park Ave, Burlington, NC, 27217 (180K)Thank you!

Quote from @Devin James: Gross Margin is an important calculation for developers/builders.Gross Margin = Gross Profit / RevenueWe shoot for a 20% gross margin on our New Construction HomesReal #’s:Home Sales Price: $374KClosing Cost: $18,700Cost of Construction: $258KLand Cost: $30KGross Profit = $67K$67K/$374K = 17.9% Gross MarginCame slightly short of our goal of 20%Homes Values and Build Costs are constantly fluctuatingI wish we had a crystal ball build larger homes. average new build in our market is 2200 square feet, 4 beds, 3 baths, 2 car garage and sells for 515k. construction costs lower if design is good and find the median or average home sale price and push that up. my guess is you built too small. 347k is cheap. we target 429-479k price range in columbus ohio for single family homes and also only purchase close to urban core where premiums are 20% higher and we build smaller like 1500 sq ft where price per square foot goes up. 

I'm looking at monthly cost to seller vs. anticipated rental income, purchase price relevant to the ARV of the area and interest rate, balloon, etc.

Hi Erica, what I've notice is that high-quality (high-priced) washer and dryers don't out perform other based price models in rentals.
