We look at real estate as less of a transactional 1:1 investment or deal by deal, and try to look at it as a holistic long term strategy which executes flips for multiplying cash, and holds for cash flow, depreciation (offset gains from flips), and equity.

As others have stated it is best to deal with problem sooner vs later as bedbugs will multiply and get worse if untreated.

Many courts or laws invoke a lodestar' calculation: reasonably expected billable hours multiplied by a reasonable hourly rate, sometimes multiplied by a factor reflecting the risk or complexity of the case.

For prop tax I derive the tax rate from the most recent year's tax liability and total assessed value- then multiply that rate times the assumed purchase price.(4) 100% agree. 

Imagine $120.00 a door that  is closer to what I am getting multiplied by 1000 front doors equals $120,000 a month multiplied by 12 months equals $1,440,000.00 right?

If so, you need a sit down with them to explain it's got to be a partnership working together to take care of these critters.The Advion is good (as are many other products from places such as DoMyOwnPestControl) but if the tenants continue to provide a food AND water source for the roaches they will continue to multiply and continue to infest the property.Some tenants are simply stupid about the way they live yet expect the landlord to take care of the pest control situation.  

You are able to rent them all at at the same $1400 however your expenses are more and you are only able to cash flow $250 on each, so multiply that by 5 properties... $1250 a month cash flow.

They do the value based on cap rate or gross rent multiplier and they don’t have the 6 month requirement.

Note I even used a higher multiplier for the old value (which does reflect reality in San Diego market).Note the actual cash flow is not the initial cash flow but is the cash flow that is actually realized over the holding period of the property. 

What I’m worried about is if we will see some kind of multiplier effect here amongst the healthy sub 50 set.
