That’s what I’m talking about.. having people on the ground who know their turf and can spot trouble before it smacks you in the face.From what I’ve heard, outfits like Northwest Preferred Property Management or Umbrella Properties in Eugene aren’t just running the numbers.. they’ve seen the weird mid-season repairs and the tenant personalities you’ll never read about in a textbook.

BiggerPockets is full of resources designed to help you along your journey, whether you are just getting started or a seasoned investor.

It feels like DSCR lenders are catering to BRRRR investors more now than ever with short seasoning guidelines, air tight DSCR requirements (1.0), etc. 

In off season when its a mid term rental I manage.

My firm has a 3 month seasoning period that will get you up to 140% of your purchase price and rehab costs. 

Hey @Max Dauer, so during the high season, probably about 5 hours a week.

I'm a more seasoned investor so I won't just write off the appraisal. 

Killeen is a good cash flow market, but you have to buy in the right area and also time your tenant turnover to the Permanent Change of Station (PCS) season since it is predominately military town

Not sure when you purchased the property, but keep in mind conventional loans require 12 months of seasoning before you can use the appraised value for a cash out refi.

I dont know the market in Las Craces.....but in the DC area, we definitely have a seasonal adjustment on sales, and if the property was here, it would have been listed at the worst possible time.
