I calculate the percentage for soft costs into my projected returns.  

After requesting a video walk through she let me know there are a couple small soft spots in the kitchen, the skirting needs to be replaced, and she’ll be taking the front steps to the home.

I'm nervous as today's my first soft lead door knock on a property that is an estate (daughter is cleaning out Mom's house, a friend of ours is their handyman as they prep to sell).

@Benjamin Bass yes its in an LLC currently under renovations.

I have a soft spot for the island as I had a lot of good times there, it has the best bars/clubs by far (don't know if they're still there, but we had Ocean Drive, Springfield Inn, La Costa, Shenanigans, Steak Out - I played some of these places!)

I want to know what your experience is with soft costs on these new MF developments and if these percentages seemed to be on point, better than expected or too high.

I expect multifamily in some of the densest cities to see some softness.

The "inputs" into your analysis are soft factors that only come from experience and knowing your market.

I love the soft gray and whites with stainless appliances.
