Over-budgeting is critical to ensure that renovations don’t eat into your profits.Market Fluctuations: If property values in your area do not appreciate as expected, or if you face a market downturn, the amount you can refinance for may be lower than anticipated.Financing Challenges: Securing financing for the initial purchase and rehab, as well as refinancing after the property is rehabbed, may be challenging, particularly if the property is located in an area with fluctuating values or if the rehab work doesn’t immediately improve the property’s appraised value.Tenant Risk: Rent collection and tenant management can be unpredictable.
