Instead of 40 houses cash flowing $200 each or $8000/month, you buy 10 houses and pay them off for a cash flow of $10,000/month with 1/4th the headache.People don't understand the amount of time, energy, and stress involved with managing a lot of doors, especially if they are lower-class properties typically needed to generate cash flow.

There are aggressive lenders out there with lower fees for experienced flippers.  

As for by-the-room rentals, many lenders won't allow that and if they do, they qualify you off of the long term market rents (which, as I'm sure you can imagine, would be considerably lower than the actual per-room rents).

My mark up is always lower than the direct lender because I don't spend money advertising during the Super Bowl or buying a private jet for my CEO, and we don't have layers of management we need to pay.

The down payment might be a little higher, but it will be a much longer-term loan that you won't have to worry about coming up with big payment in month 24 and it'll be amortized over a much longer time period (probably 25-30 years), so the monthly payment could actually be lower. 

Rented in Feb 2024, Lower cash flow than expected.

i'm in Pittsburgh, lower price point than Boston, trying to do my next BRRRR, and I keep getting outbid. 

So your results will be a degree lower than local investors. 

Compared to other services that might offer lower-quality leads or require higher upfront costs/paywalls, Prime Tracers also give you free lead credits on sign up so you can actually see the results before you commit to a purchase.

A little lower ARV is also ok.I like to use Hocker Title.
