Why is your mortgage cost so low at only $44k/year?

A lot of folks that build and rehab wont pay for it.. they take the position they did everything right and it benefits buyer if you want it you pay for it.its not a huge cost . 

Rising maintenance costs, turnover, Taxes, and other expenses will also contribute to this.  

Now you know, you need to send out 5,000 postcards to get those five deals..You will know the cost of acquiring a customer/property after all this..

Mod Building if done right cuts your carrying cost and your installation time making it more affordable. 

@Mike Levene cost to build per square foot is $200-$300 depending on finishes.So, you can start with that.

My son currently lives in the townhouse b/c he is going to school and works in the area.Since he is young and starting out in life, I would like for him to only cover the basic costs (taxes, HOA, utilities) just enough for me to break even (I believe that will put him slightly little lower than market rent rates). 

Hi Robert, I always look at the rehab and deciding what I can do vs the opportunity cost of spending my time elsewhere.

I'm looking for super low cost, or preferably free.

Most will cover up to 100% of the renovation costs and 70-90% of the purchase price, depending on factors like the type of property itself, your experience, credit position, and the lender’s specific guidelines.
