I view it as a tool in a toolbox to help you "trim the fat" off the bottom of your portfolio, so you can keep growing with new acquisitions. 

If they can't agree to your reduction, walk away.

It will be extended, we'll see a reduction in regulations that hamper small businesses, and we'll see new regulations that help small businesses.

Most of the ultra wealthy individuals sacrifice a lot to obtain their wealth, and I won’t make those same sacrifices.Similarly, I don’t desire to have 5% body fat because I don’t want to put in the effort required for it.I understand that ultra wealthy is subjective, but the main point stands. 

So you not only have to increase production to get the price down there, but also increase production to out-grow OPECS reduction in production, because they will throttle production to keep there profit margin nice and fat. 

Most on-market deals will likely not fit your investment criteria unless you allocate a substantial downpayment, often at least 30%-35%, or negotiate a price reduction that fits your requirements.Furthermore, while this is not the case for all metro ATL markets, my team and I typically see that a solid portion of the small multifamily space is comprised/orientated in neighborhoods of other small multifamily properties.

Every market is different, but paying cash doesnt necessitate a huge reduction in price - it might, or it might just make the offer more competitive than other bids that require financing.

Know your #'s, cut the fat, focus on quality.
