Maybe it is, but that is the real killer to get that extra 5%.

Of course that would change if there was a screaming deal where the numbers absolutely positively worked.My first house had a loan at 18% so the Int Rate alone is not a deal killer, but you gotta be careful because it will suck up your profits real fast.Can you sell the duplex and free up $150k cash?

That being said, going forward I wouldn't wave the inspection period unless there were other offers or you knew for sure it was a killer deal. 

Nowadays I rarely buy stuff from the MLS because they just look so "retail" to me :) unless they are in a killer location and I don't mind paying premium for. 

Ten homes worth about $50,000 each, all of the homes are occupied.What would be a deal-killer:1.

Hi Joshua,Finding yourself eyeing up a killer deal without the cash upfront is a spot many of us have been in, so you're definitely not alone in this.

I'm focusing on DIY projects and searching out the next killer deal that works with these interest rates, so when I refinance in the future, (5 year timeline is my bet) I'll be feeling great. 

For example, if you’re in a killer school district and there’s a high median income, it’s possible that a 1200 sq.

I can make a decent profit and someone else will get a killer deal on a rental.Nobody has contacted me. 

It's a killer market with very friendly regulations, since the local economy depends heavily on vacation rentals.
