That being said, the structure should look something like this: a) 50% to 65% LTV (using conservative ARV - don't go crazy here)b) Set an amortizing loan term and structure if you can so the borrower is chipping away at the principal (interest only is less attractive but doable) - shorter the amortization, the better the price (typically).

Often, this leads to them outsourcing property management and contracting services to other vendors, which chips away at their margins.

The biggest news as of late is Intel's plan to build chip manufacturing plants in Licking County, a $20 billion investment, which is the largest private investment in state history.

Obviously blue chip areas with large private homes are generally A grade.

Internet of Things (IoT)The Internet of Things, or IoT for short, is like a superpower for everyday objects.Imagine if your refrigerator could tell you when you're running out of milk, or your streetlights could adjust their brightness based on the time of day.That's what IoT does – it connects regular things to the internet, allowing them to talk to each other and to us.Here's how it works in simple terms: IoT devices are like little smart helpers.They can be anything from your smartwatch and thermostat to your car or even a trash can.These devices have tiny computer chips and sensors inside them.These sensors can detect things like temperature, motion, or even the level of water in a plant pot.Now, here's the cool part.These smart devices can send the information they collect to the internet using Wi-Fi or other connections.That means you can check your smartwatch to see how many steps you've taken today, even if your phone is in another room.IoT isn't just about convenience; it's also about making the world more efficient and safer.For example, IoT can help cities monitor traffic and reduce congestion, or it can alert you when there's a water leak in your home, potentially saving you from a big mess.So, the Internet of Things is like giving everyday objects a voice and a brain.It's making our lives easier, our cities smarter, and our world more connected.

Yeah I have it under contract for about $100,000 and it will probably rent for about $1,200.I will go back to the seller and see if they are willing to chip in for the massive amount of work necessary on this house and if not, call off the deal.I wonder if I even got them to pay for much of this work if it would be worth it due to the water issues that have to be dealt with that a renter isn't going to be interested in being disciplined about.  

Every time I turn around, there is another wholesaling of flipping event, where everyone thinks they’ll be Tarek and Christina and Chip and Joanna Gaines (HGTV Shows).

The 7th guy left, so the other 6 guys all chipped in a few buck each to make the $1500 for the week.

Do I really want to read a review regarding how they would prefer oatmeal cookies over the chocolate chip cookies that I left out?

Our short term rentals are in central TX, so we leave the best local chips and salsa.
