How are lenders (e.g. for HELOC or cash-out refi) arriving at home values in Trenton (or other very distressed areas)?  

They think if they move out five minutes before the sheriff arrives, that's not an eviction.

I have a lot of assets and have always done my own taxes, and while I'm not sure how you arrived at the conclusion that your IQ is higher than Steve, if it's because of the high honors college graduate - with a 4 year degree, I'm assuming here?

Also, an appraiser was sent to my house over the summer and briefly walked the property so I don't think AI was used for this reassessment value.I have an informal meeting scheduled for next week w/ the appraisal company for more information how they arrived at the value and I requested a copy of the property record card from the town as well.

I arrived not too long ago. 

Weekly rentals only (guests arrive and are too tired to use the boat the first day.

@Daniela Beck How are you estimating income for Airbnb to arrive at if a property will be cash flowing 500/mo and a 15% COC?

I’ve invested with Fundrise, Streitwise, Groundfloor, Stairs by Groundfloor, Concreit, and Arrived.

Appraisers have some pretty strict requirements to follow in order to arrive at an opinion of value.

Obviously, we did a virtual tour but that doesn't really help with getting a look/feel for the neighborhood.When we arrived I was a bit shocked.
