Hey @Rio Nance you’re casting a pretty wide net with your question, since it's not specific to an area or city, but I’ll share based on what I'm seeing.

pool and theme based will help to differentiate your listing

There are some DSR Rehab lenders that may lend based on ARV.Otherwise, you'll need to raise funds from family & friends.

Short of that, you may target employees of Canada-based companies with a presence in KC (this is easy to find on LinkedIn).

I mainly want to ask if these assumptions are reasonable and if there's anything I haven't considered:(1) multifamily units in NJ close to New York City, ~$1,000,000, 20% down payment, (2) Using the following assumptions: 4% appreciation rate, 6.5% interest rate and 5.0% refinance after 5 years, $10,000 yearly maintenance fee(3) ~$6,000 monthly rental and assume 3% increase yearly with 5% vacancy rate(4) Based on the above, the calculated IRR if selling at the 10th year is ~19% (considering tax benefits) and ~17% (without tax benefits).

On the surface, the deal seems appealing, but there's a catch: the asking price is $475,000, which is about 18% over the market value (based on comps and DealCheck estimates around $402,000).Details of the DealProperty: Duplex, 2,400 sq. ft., Purchase Price: $475,000 ($197.9/sq. ft.).Estimated Market Value: $402,000 ($168/sq. ft.).Financing Terms: 2% interest rate, with a 9-year balloon.Unit B Income: $2,049/month (Section 8 tenant through November 2025).Unit A Income Potential: Similar rent or higher; Section 8 cap for the area is $3,234/month.Monthly Loan Payment (P+I): $1,386.Cash Flow Breakdown (if both units are rented at $2,049/month):Gross Rent: $4,098/month.Vacancy (10%): $410/month.Operating Expenses (37.3%): $1,376/month.Net Cash Flow: $943/month.Key QuestionsWould you be comfortable paying an 18% premium for financing at 2%, especially in a market where current mortgage rates are closer to 7%?

GP's typically have to put skin on the game.

I am new to the game and using the FHA loan has just seemed to be the most common way to house hack (at least in terms of what the resources I have read have said). 

(aside from the 1 or 2 homes that have stunning overlook views).When building out your buy box, are you all using the averages, or are you basing your min/max on the cream of the crop listing revenues, even when there aren't clear reasons as to why they are performing so much better than others?

I want to be able to find potential markets/listings nationally based on the return.
