Competitive Edge: The immediate cash flow available from a cost segregation study could give you an advantage against competitors as you may have more liquidity available to purchase a new property than those who aren’t utilizing cost segregation.

Look at your competitors in your market to understand what you're competing against  3) if you're using Furnished Finder, understand that it's a lead gen funnel only and not an online booking site.

You could have a few things driving the cost:-Location - if the house is more remote the contractor will have higher costs to get out there (gas, lodging, limited resources) or if you are using a local guy he might be higher because he knows there are fewer competitors -El Nino - the roofers we use are all busy because people are rushing to get work done before the rains hit.  

Always gotta be studying the market, studying your competitors, and improving your homes to exceed the rapidly increasing competition.

If the ownership of this assisted living facility didn't care about the prepayment penalty, and the bank didn't "swipe left" on the property based on things like experience level of the ownership and/or management team, this might be a clear winner. 

Other competitors that also have positive investor satisfaction are ShareStates and Zeus Crowdfunding.

So, what are the competitor apartments priced at?
