@Kwok Wong With limited exceptions its customarily the lower tier neighborhoods that present both BRRRR and cash flow.

Refinancing next year would likely allow you to lock in a potentially lower rate than the 8% you're currently at, especially if the market conditions continue to favor lower rates.Avoid Duplicate Fees: You're right in thinking about avoiding duplicate fees for the refinance and HELOC.

if there is lots of interest, they can say to you "that's a nice list of 'issues' your inspector found - give me asking price, or find another property. i'm not making any repairs or lowering the price."

Costs can be on the lower end if you use more standardized templates, while custom documents tailored to specific deals tend to fall on the higher end.Location can also play a role, with attorneys in larger cities often charging more.

Lower your price, but don't lower your standards.

Demand was much higher when rates were lower - you might be able to scoop a solid 1920s Highland up/down duplex for 10% under list and 20% less than it might have sold in 2021 - but current rates erase any potential savings.

:Class A Properties:Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, 3-5 years for positive cashflow, but you get highest relative rent & value appreciation.Vacancy Est: Historically 10%, 5% the more recent norm.Tenant Pool: Majority will have FICO scores of 680+ (roughly 5% probability of default), zero evictions in last 7 years.Class B Properties:Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, decent amount of relative rent & value appreciation.Vacancy Est: Historically 10%, 5% should be applied only if proper research done to support.Tenant Pool: Majority will have FICO scores of 620-680 (around 10% probability of default), some blemishes, but should have no evictions in last 5 yearsClass C Properties:Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, high cashflow and at the lower end of relative rent & value appreciation.

it's a lower risk way to get started.

Quote from @Zachary Engen: Ive read a few things about onlying being able to cash out refinance 75% or the purchase +closing costs, whichever is lower.
