a platform advertised for on the BP podcast...I have recently adopted it and am aggressively working through prior years' data to get the most out of the system.

And they are literally out that $50k compare to if they bought the house next to you (with $62k down) and made it an Airbnb.

Then I would compare that estimate with what Furnishedfinder.com has in the area.

Quote from @Evan Polaski: @Enrique Roth, every investor should be preparing a full appraisal package.In mine, I include 1. before and after photos, 2. 5-6 comps that I want the appraiser to use, WITH explanations of what the comps have or don't have compared to mine.  

Compare that to what you are losing now which appears to be nothing except the inconvenience of a less than ideal payment pattern. 4.

Yes, there is an argument made that they have to disclose anything material, but that is subjective.With that said, a red flag that came up recently for me when investing out of state was when I was in escrow on a property that was purchased just a few months prior.

Additionally, ARVs in these areas have a cloud of uncertainty so it will be prudent to be conservative in your analysis and have multiple exit strategies in place.If the home is located in an area with minimal impact from the storms, there has been a small uptick in pending sales the past two weeks compared to same period prior to the storms.

I'm in your same situation and also prior service. 

The second thing I will say is that you as the buyer have to do your due diligence throughout the whole buying process, even to go to the property and make sure a tenant is vacated prior to closing the deal.. 

Create a simple spreadsheet or written list to compare the features of each and identify the ones that align with your requirements.
