ic_id=tsMortFSI love this quote at the bottom of the post, very applicable to Investors too, you just have to factor ALL the components into the equation:"Mortgage rates are climbing fast, and many people may rush into a homebuying decision as a result, hoping to avoid higher borrowing costs," she says.

This is probably one of the largest factors in the "common" {mis}perception that low-flow toilets do not perform as well.

Forgot to mention - I would pay cash for the property and I have factored in 10% annual maintenance/repair, 5% self managing cost; $1393.00/year property taxes, insurance, utilities, and 10% vacancy/bad debt/collections into my spreadsheet.

Is the commission not a factor in calculating the maximum offer price?

Time is a big factor to me.

Are there factors that should be considered that aren't so obvious in buying a space?

Specifically, you should ask about the line "Are there any physical deficiencies or adverse conditions that affect the livability, soundness, or structural integrity of the property?"

Cons:Illiquid, especially when you need it.I'm sure other factors like the pros/cons of depreciation, pros/cons of inflation, etc. play a big role, but I'm not thinking that deep… yet.

While it depends on the lender, as well as other factors like the buyer's down, etc, they may let you slide on the ratios.

Have you factored in vacancies and who is going to manage it?
