Hey Sam, Do you need to close on this fast?

My goal is to do a quick analysis to disqualify a property as fast as possible and move on to the ones that are more aligned with my goals. 

This isn't hard and fast rule, but overall my (and many other's) experience.  

The underwriting process will tell you if this is going to be a company that is fast and easy to work with or just a bank that slapped a fancy name on the sign outside.

Consequently, during prosperous times, the industry struggles to build fast enough, and what we're currently seeing are the completions from previous boom years.

It's growing and growing fast.

The other component that makes me nervous is how fast properties have run up over the past 3-4 years and will that leave any appreciation for the net 3-5 years?

Skills, tools, subs, muscle you have to complete fast on paper.Architectural plans with elevations.Plat map, drawing where house goes, title report, gas lines, cost breakdowns, temporary power...Reports of existing utilities.Notes on conversation with planning desk on time frame.Combining the two loan types can be done, you need to be a great secretarial story teller on paper.

The new builds rent really well and $$ appreciate really well and fast

Track what properties are selling, with what features, how fast, and for how much.
