We also have programs that can close in 3 days or less if you need speed.

I agree with Dominic, I would price it according to the market and CHA will make the adjustments on their end.

Is in there, but a great thing you can do now is get your "core 4" figured out - agent/lender/manager/contractor - obviously you can adjust this and do one of the pieces yourself (self-manage for example) or don't need a contractor if you do only turnkey etc but getting this nailed down early is key

If not then probably better to just continue paying for it yourself, unless you want to speed up the process and you are constrained by cash.Your decision to refinance is going to be contingent on what your long term plans are.

Quote from @Carl Rowles: When you insure a SFH rental property, do you try to adjust and of the coverage amounts?

Now, if you listen carefully you will find that he too found some of the same things that others mentioned...no deals in Austin, prices were too high...but then he adjusted his approach and nailed it!

If the interest rate is still a barrier, you could explore adjusting your deal structure or negotiating with the seller to see if there is any flexibility on the price or terms to make the deal more attractive for buyers.Overall, while the interest rate may make it more challenging, it’s not impossible to work through.

I’m also starting to wonder if my minimum requirements are too high for this area or if I should stick to them.Here’s what I currently require:Application: Everyone 18 or older must complete an application.Screening: Includes income and rental history verification.Background & Credit Check: Clear background and credit check required ($45 application fee).Income: Monthly income must be at least three times the rent (minimum $4,200 combined).Credit Score: Minimum credit score of 650.Eviction History: No prior evictions allowed.I’m considering adjusting these to a credit score of 600 and income of 2.5 times the rent.

I generated the list by combining Zillow's smooth, seasonally adjusted home value dataset (ZHVI) with their rent index (ZORI) for metro areas.

Yeah, various factors kept adjusting but for majority part it was the same sport. 2020, everything changed.
