I've had trouble with property management in Baltimore.

Any trouble with them delivering a clear title?

Quote from @Nate Marshall: Quote from @JD Martin: Quote from @Chris Seveney: @Jay HinrichsI 100% agree - but I would bet you a nickel that what many sponsors are doing right now has 0 benefit to the funds that are in trouble or right the ship - they are just trying to stay afloat and raise money so they can live their “lifestyle” for the next few years.To the contrary I think many know it’s a lost cause but do not want to admit it / make it public as it will crush their money raising efforts on their new funds.Maybe I am wrong but my gut tells me differently This is exactly what I suspect as well.

I definitely recommend that you seek out a Certified Cost Segregation Professional so that you are confident in the quality of the work performed and the deliverables produced.

Divorces are not usually amicable so trying to get another party to agree to make money on the house (and move you out) will be time consuming and very unlikely.This statement though, "it is just sitting due to interest rates", is troubling.

Im wondering if I will get in some sort of trouble.

Fixing a class B doesn't produce amenities that Class A offers, otherwise you're losing sq ft if you add a gym/shower, etc.Anyway, happy to get updates, but I think your leasing will be at 0 for 12 months.

Quote from @Luis Maza: Hi all, returning to the game this year and would like to pick your brain a bit, we started working with a wholesaler that will send us properties here and there with the "wholesale" price, but every time we check the properties and add the numbers, the margins are, well, I am not sure, too low perhaps, maybe we are getting to picky, but this is my dilemma for example...Today we got a property, wholesale price 300K, rehab about 50-60K, ARV is about 440k, but with the cost of hard money, we have about 100k cash, hard money interest at 11%, keeping the property for 90 days while we finish the rehab, closing costs,  commissions, we ended with 30k profit before taxes, while it sounds appealing, adding up all expenses and cost we ended up expending 50K on rehab(labor/materials) and about 50-60K with cost of the loan, interest, commissions, etc, everyone makes money, happy with that, but it seems that we are working to produce a 100k for everyone else, while we make 20-30k if everything goes well...In my opinion, we are not really getting "wholesale" price, it seems that we either buying to expensive, rehabs are much more than we would like to spend and the cost of borrowing that money is too high...We came up with thoughts as: lets fund it ourselves with money from a close friend/partner that we will bring in, and that would save us 10-15k here and there, but still, is that the norm now?

Everyone is looking for a market predictor tool for MTRs and so far no one has produced one.

I claimed for years 1) initial cash flow and cash flow over a long hold have a poor coupling 2) that I would purchase a property with negative initial cash flow.  3) I cared about total return and did not give a $hit about cash flow if the other returns produce an outstanding return 4) that cash flow is my least favorite return because it gets taxed annually.
