Also have a good reason for great discount!!!

Doing all the valves at once may result in a savings to the cost of the checks but it also prevents taking care of one in August, 2 in October, 1 in December, etc.Get them on the same schedule and find someone that will provide a bulk discount. 

That's usually a discounted price to attract buyers.Two, a shortsale means that the owner owes more on their mortgage, plus penalties and fees than the house is worth.

Just a reminder to check and see if your taxing authority gives you a discount for paying by October 31st. 

@Anthony MikolichThere are several banks that do HELOCs on Investment Properties.The one that I know is East West Bank: East West BankI understand there are a lot of suggestions to do a refi, but there are two problems with that:1) That's not what the OP asked and 2) There are REAL reasons why to use a HELOC... which is why it's a Loan Product that is available.HELOCs give you another choice to use money temporarily and is better than HARD Money.I will wind up getting huge discounts on properties with an All Cash Offer.The discount I get can be upwards of $100k on a $1.5 Million property.BELIEVE ME.... it is worth it.

You can probably find an agent willing to do that for a discount, since you already have the properties.

You look for a property that needs a bit of work to get it at a discount, spruce it up, put into service with a tenant.

Equivalently, it is the discount rate at which the net present value of future cash flows is equal to the initial investment, and it is also the discount rate at which the total present value of costs (negative cash flows) equals the total present value of the benefits (positive cash flows).Can you shed some light on how you calculate the IRR for your rentals?

I would recommend looking at comparable properties and discount for any repairs that need to be made. 

Buying properties at a discount is not about misinforming sellers.
