You should have set standards and you should always stick to them (always!)

I am currently interning this summer with a big home builder you may have heard of (PulteGroup) where i am working directly with construction managers.

Most cases with Hard money it is temporary financing with minimal standard guidelines.

Why would she respond with "that's a lot" when it’s not even at the set standard they assign?

When I first started my real estate journey in 2018 and started listening to BiggerPockets Real Estate podcasts, I was only familiar with Cash on Cash return.Once I actually entered the game in 2020, I quickly realized that there were many more calculations to take into consideration:ROI - Return on InvestmentROE - Return on EquityIRR - Internal Rate of ReturnEM - Equity MultipleCap Rate - Capitalization RateCoC - Cash on Cash ReturnAAR - Average Annual Return(I’m sure I'm missing some)I still struggle to juggle all of these calculations today.Developers, syndicators, flippers, etc., will all have different preferences.Which key calculations do you prioritize on when analyzing your deals?

Those reinsurance policies more or less filter back to 3-5 large international providers.

Ensure you are engaging your CPA or tax strategist experts to help with tax planning for your portfolio and understand that this is a different service than your standard tax preparation.

If they are still being used does any one have an idea of the pay range for standard drive by BPO's and interior BPO's?

The biggest problem is that they usually internally supply parts - so if your part is unique by any means, you will be waiting until they can source that part.  

I have bought my properties with cash thus far, but i am looking for any information on any kind of loans that might be available for international real estate investing.
