Durham tends to offer slightly better cash flow opportunities compared to Raleigh, especially if you’re targeting neighborhoods that are up-and-coming but still affordable.

Investment also spiked in Class A Short-Term Rentals (STR) and investors started paying higher and higher prices based upon anticipated STR rental rates, that exceeded sustainability based upon Long-Term Rental rates (LTR).

Quote from @Melanie Baldridge: Why I like investing in real estate more than 401(k)s.Both offer tax deferrals, but here's the difference:If you're making pre-tax contributions to your 401(k), then withdrawals = ordinary income tax.With real estate gains, you're paying capital gains tax (which is typically lower).Plus, RE investors get:1.

If that's the case, you should be able to rate/term refinance at ~75% LTV with a DSCR loan, and with some interest-only basis, your payment will go to ~$850 (based on ROUGH pricing TODAY).

But there are a few ways to shake things up:Cash for Keys: Offer them money to move out.

-- We focus on verifying 2-year work history and verifying rent payments with last 2 landlords (unless in same property for 5+ years).3) MoveIn Specials: be careful with offering "free rent" as will just attract tenants with no cash.-- Try free TV or something else worth 25-50% of one month of rent.-- Or, what we do is offer the free rent AFTER & ONLY if they pay their first 3 months of rent on time to earn it.4) Lower the rent 5% every 2-4 weeks until activity picks up.5) Understand this is the worst time of year to find tenants.-- Starts picking back up end of February when this tenant pool starts getting their income tax refunds and aren't broke anymore.6) Section 8: where is the property being advertised?

The owners of 100+ unit complexes are not individuals who will be swayed to sell by a good offer or the need to cut short term losses.

I did a search on my own  to help them find it and I can't find any insurance companies offering quotes for the Los Angeles area at the moment.

However, these fees are subject to variation as they are determined by the banking entity providing the service.A Bank Trust not only transforms your dream of owning property in Mexico into reality but also offers unparalleled flexibility.

Determine your maximum allowable offer (MAO) based on your investment criteria.
