For example, if the Chinese government stops Chinese citizens from taking their money out of China, it will slow demand for Real Estate in Canada.The only problem with forecasting a bubble bursting is that it could be a month from now, or it could be 15 years from now when home prices are 3 or 4 times higher than what they are now.If you buy for the long term cash flow, you'll be protected if house prices decrease.

Over time, Google also kept suggesting me to add more keywords, which I felt has actually decreased the conversion from traffic to leads that submit info or call. 

Hello - this may be a newbie question but from reading the various articles on BP and Investopedia, my understanding is that Net Operating Income (NOI) is defined as operating expenses required to run and maintain the property but excludes Loan Payments, Capital Expenditures, Depreciation, and Amortization.The IRS has recently raised the Tangible Property Expensing threshold to $2,500 (from $500 previously) per item so if you took advantage of this change, wouldn't it decrease your NOI since you can expense smaller capital items as repairs & maintenance instead of capitalizing and then depreciating them over time?  

Then I would need to refinance and know that in three years the mortgage industry could be different, and there are risks that property values decrease.

One way or another, however, the investors must work to pay down loans, increase rents and decrease expenses wherever possible. 

We consider the BP community to be the most informed in the country, or at least that we have easy access to.We are finding that experienced investors, if they see the investment as risky, they wont invest, and the amount of investment required doesn't increase or decrease their interest.  

Electric use is not going to decrease in the future so I see no reason to delay making the required improvements. 

., a decrease in home prices wouldn't affect the rents very much, but that's very case-by-case, market-by-market.

Now if you know the steps before this, building rapport, the upfront agreement to avoid the me think it over, discovering the motivation of the seller, and decreasing the asking price, this “what if step” is just a trial close, and unless you really haven’t done a good job with the 4 steps before, if this should be very easy, should be an easy close.

a 30-40% increase wouldn't be so terrible that it eats up all my cash flow, but it does decrease the returns a bit, but the property would still be performing.
