I think a bit of analysis paralysis is good for a new investor in this current market when looking at TK providers.When I first started REI in late 2013, I only worked with TK providers and bought as fast as I could because I knew the recession was coming to a close and the great deals were diminishing rapidly.NOw, we are in a completely different market, we have a different president....

But if we are rebranded as Long & Foster - A Berkshire Hathaway Company, I think that could potentially diminish the power of the L&F Brand.

Also there is some diminishing returns on some things.

They start to see it as diminishing returns. 

This will work until your debt to income ratio diminishes, or you reach the cap for conventional financing (4 or 10 properties, depending on whether you're getting a Fannie or Freddie loan, I think).2.

Those that are more comprehensive in covering of utilities can have super high fees and make your cashflow potential diminish.

The biggest flaw with this is, once you start to expand on it, it has substantial diminishing returns as you increase the property value as compared to the market competitive rates.

Also, this would diminish the amount of time that i have to spend traveling to wherever the property is (ideally).I have a full time job and a decent amount of responsibilities here where i live every week, so i naturally gravitated toward seeking a partnership with someone.

Everything on the first page, and especially the top half, carries more weight - the rest is just application of the law of diminishing returns

The reason why it's hard to underwrite this is that the possibility of someone moving from a cozy SFH to a 3F is low because it diminishes the quality of life significantly.
