I can still make this cash flow although I am getting worried that I am settling for unreasonable rates?

And knowing some successful agents that still feel the pressure to not turn down a listing in this market, even knowing the seller's expectations are somewhat unreasonable, feels like it would be all the worse.

When they make an unreasonable demand you need to remind them that it's not reasonable and that the lease says they pay rent in exchange for the property as-is besides lease and law required repairs.

If she decided to take you to court over the rent raise, or anyone like her family members, non profit etc, the burden of proof is on YOU to prove $550 is not unreasonable and unconscionable.

This will only prove just how unreasonable she is.

@Brady Winder - I would guess that since this will be new construction, he is building into calculations that expenses will be minimal for the foreseeable future, at the very least, you're reasonably looking at siding/roof/flooring/etc. that won't need to be replaced for a decade or so.I have been quoted 4.125% for NOO 30-yr. financing on a 4-plex in Tacoma, so I would say that 4% might be a little optimistic, but not unreasonable.

You are being unreasonable.

Making unreasonable demands..."

My husband want to know if it is reasonable or unreasonable to ask and have the land reappraised (as if it were raw land) if they sell the developed property in 10 years.
