Lack of affordability - our number-one problem - and its broader implications on poor people's lives is not something the fortunate among us experience or even know about.

Otherwise I am looking forward to making my departure to broader horizons. 

@Leeor Neh I guess my broader question would be what is the purpose of you putting your name on the deed of the property when it sounds like in substance/economically it is your parent's investment?

You need a broader knowledge of transactions and know which one to apply to the property you locate, otherwise, you're always trying to put a round peg in a square hole and it may not fit.RE is not complicated, but you're trying to get information in the wrong place IMO.

A portfolio manager may consider financial year and portfolio affects on a broader scale, but you will find that hard to tie into any affinity for an offer on the REO.

In short, you can have a broader set of criteria as long as your criteria do not violate Fair Housing or other laws. 

not sure about NM but what I've seen are some upgrades and additions help sell the home for more money and some upgrades and additions help sell home quicker or appeal to a broader or more specific buyer pool.

My gut is, there isn't an appetite for that type of hyper local data and instead a reliance on broader macro/msa level data or the GP's experience and expertise.Thanks again!

This is probably a broader question, but it really relates to some things like the appraisal, you may have to pay $5,000 for an appraisal, $3,000 for the phase I environmental report, $2,000 for an ALTA survey, you may have a nominal application fee: it all depends on your loan size,For commercial investments in industrial in 2022, they're very hot and heavy, so I don't think borrowers have to spend much for upfront fees.Do I get a copy of my lender reports?

Then there are people like me who use it as part of my broader strategy and intentionally limit our activity.
