I also have rentals in Detroit that I get far higher rents with cash paying tenants than I would a section 8 tenant.There are a lot of factors at play and the answer to "why would the government allow our tax dollars to be spent this way?"

FICO, experience, and LTV are also factors but this is the basis of the loan.

Make sure we're accounting for the appreciation, cost of the sale, cost of the purchase and one of my favorite factors, the risk.

What Ray predicted seemed to make sense, but unfortunately there were other  factors that  interrupted his predicted scenario. 

Well worth the money, plus you will have already factored that expense in to your cash-on-cash requirements to justify a purchase decision)4. 

My ARVs are also reflective of those factors. 

Of course the goal should be on the first page by anytime but that is usually bad ROI since the price is the biggest factor on the rank.

What ADR did you use for MTR and how did you derive the MTR ADR (or different what rent and what vacancy factor)?

Don't get me wrong:  cash flow is still an important factor, it keeps the lights on, it pays for repairs and upgrades.

Most times landlords don't have data or cannot adequately factor in vacancy time or turnover rate.
