I mean really who saw this virus coming I am in Vegas for the 6 months of the year and just watched the governer brake down in tears as he said that ALL non essential business's are to close for 30 days..

I'm kind of seeing the wisdom of going a little bit slower so you can not have the lending situation be so crazy with multiple things in motion at the same time, plus I'm seeing that it would be wise for me to put the brakes on a little bit so I can make sure that all these properties will rent for what my property manager told they told me they would, before I keep going.

Some banks/lender may require more down causing that exact issue and putting the brakes on buying additional rentals.Once you establish who you will go with these conversations should fall into place. 

There are a lot of factors to weigh in terms of repairs and inspection and if you are this unsure of how the process works from a deal flow perspective, you might need to pump the brakes and make sure you know what you are doing so you don't get into a deal that you don't understand.

Doing the work myself (and using tips and trick to get high quality materials at a discount) should let me brake even.

Platinum-grade batteries with a three-year warranty, brake pads guaranteed for life, windshield wipers changed every year, Michelin tires changed every 2 years, oil changed every 5000 miles.

Joe Grebe I use Emergency savings for unexpected events in life (job loss, death of a loved one, transmission failing, etc.)Vehicle maintenance is a regular occurrence, something you know is coming: oil changes, new tires, brakes, minor repairs, etc.

And when thieves brake in multiple times while your trying to rehab it ( see another BP post of a nice lady experiencing that) and let m know when you have to buy security systems so your houses don't get trashed..

If a property is brake even, that means all bills are being paid but no money is left over for the owners.

To me its more like learning basic car maintenance (how to change the oil, brakes, etc).
