I get out my handy dandy hardcore calculator and figure out that if I did a 10yr loan at 5% with them I could offer $163K (rounded) and get a PV of $100K.Using the formula FV = PV * (1 + r)^nSo in this case I want a PV of $100K (The cash offer) with an interest rate of 5% (r) and a period of 10 years (n).That seems insanely high to me to pay as a premium for a property for fairly unamazing terms.I assume I am missing something fundamental in structuring the offers.

Normally I'd be a bit more hard core about it, but we're talking about the Friday after Thanksgiving, a day that MANY businesses are closed for, regardless of industry.

Idk, but I just bought Dolf De Roos book "Real Estate Riches" and fell in love with real estate and have been hard core reading about it ever since.

You gotta know your market place...For example... we mail hard-core... that's our bread and butter... so I know a thing or two...Plus...

Wouldn't make me quit being a landlord, but that is quite hard-core. 

They were distant friend's of someone who had once known someone who knew the owner of the house.To make a long story short, the buyer I was working with was a young guy and not connected (if you know what I mean), and I didn't want to expose him to any possible retaliation from hardcore criminal squatters.I understood why the school district backed off.

I would make sure you are going hard core on your tenant screening (http://www.biggerpockets.com/renewsblog/2013/01/27/tenant-screening/ and sitting down with tenants to go over the lease when they sign.

But even in their heyday when there was insane cash flow, I never felt comfortable with investing there because Vegas is built primarily with only one main industry- entertainment- which is affected hardcore by recessions and crashes.Hope that's a start for some help?

If not, then you probably do have some hardcore troublemakers and you want to end that early.

Maybe not as hardcore sounding as BRRR, but sure playful!
