Subsidizing tenants and helping the government out for a while, until they will throw the towel in.

Other than that, we usually do 80%-85% of the cost (lot + soft costs + build cost) up to 70% of the As Completed Value.

Any excuse you give (you SHOULDN'T) will be met with challenge, bargaining, threats and sob stories.These people are wasting your time and driving away other customers in your business, and making trouble for you with the municipality, to boot.You're also being too soft and they can smell it on you. 

Currently doing repairs from a tenant departure. Shocking how little regard people have for a brand new house that doesn't belong to them. Life lessons!One of the allowed deductions beyond material damage is wear tear...

The mafia is too soft for my taste in these matters! 

My wife is a soft-spoken 5'2" asian lady. 

If you buy a house and the market is soft in 3 years, just don't sell it.

I'm assuming the developer has already paid for all of the soft costs (architecture, permitting) before you, the investor comes along. 

With the SRT we restock basic supplies between guests - toilet paper, paper towels, shampoo/body wash, laundry detergent.

I am looking for an investor to partially fund some of the soft costs for a large townhouse project I'm working on.
