Buying an interest rate cap is both temporary and is really only a prepayment of the interest rate for the term of the cap.  

This shift aims to avoid the high costs of renting temporary locations as the company focuses on stabilizing its business after emerging from bankruptcy in 2023.Meanwhile, Spirit Halloween is expanding aggressively, with a record 1,525 pop-up stores for the 2024 season, offering immersive experiences with animatronics and interactive displays.

I also see "DECEASED PETITION FOR LETTERS OF ADMINISTRATION NOTICE" and petitions for "TEMPORARY LETTERS OF GUARDIANSHIP ESTATE" ... ok, I officially have no idea what I'm looking for!!!

And lastly, I search FunishedFinder listings nearby, find comparable properties, and track the listed rent for a few months (does it increase, decrease?).

As supply increases, demand decreases, which can eventually lead to lower prices if done on a large enough scale.Unfortunately, many people outside our industry don’t fully understand this.

Let me explain that better, imagine your rehab is $100k, you would need to do part of the rehab, maybe $10k, and then you can get the funds for those first $10k reimbursed so you can keep progressing with the rehab.Given your experience, I would recommend you start with a moderate or light rehab, mostly cosmetic work so that you can do it yourself and won't get your profit decreased by hiring third parties.

As a result, my profit decreased as buyers began negotiating for lower assignment fees, using the leverage they had developed.

I have a $90k heloc on it can use also use for flips, etc. but thats more temporary cash out that I only pull if plan to repay.

@Jeffrey Zhou What you are describing is that DBI receives an anonymous complaint and sends an inspector who subsequently issues you a Notice of Violation (NOV) requiring you to abate work done without the benefit of permits.So in that situation, if the work to legalize your unit is significant enough to create a habitability issue you may need to perform a just cause eviction (temporary only) that allows you to displace the renter in order to perform the capital improvement work.
