Not a single one of the properties I was under contract for made any sense once the massive price increases were put in play.

I've seen lenders miss this and blow up loans on several occasions, and Im getting a little of that vibe here.

One CPA got rude on more than 1 occasion, for us merely asking a simple question.  

Additionally, their marketing was very compelling.

I looked into this at more than one occasion, because Milwaukee has such an old housing stock, everything is 60-120 years old.Most of the new apartments we see are 4 and 5 star developments with very high rents, this allows to offset the high cost of construction a little better.

Moving forward in my  commercial leases I will now include language making the placement of thermostats the landlords decision with additional language prohibiting the relocation. 

The property has a massive 900+ sq ft attic with very tall ceilings that would make a perfect 3rd unit potentially grossing another $1000 per month. 

Value add opportunities are over-shadowed by massive amounts of new construction. 

These are just some of the additional items that will have a significant impact on carrier's rates, your premiums, and whether we start to see the insurance market soften anytime soon or not.

It wasn’t a massive deal—our expected assignment fee was $10,000—but when you’re growing a business, every opportunity matters.Everything seemed to be moving smoothly until the title search revealed a major roadblock: the mortgage discharge couldn’t be cleared because the person who needed to sign off was deceased.
