Not sure how to research the soft costs associated with multi family.

The $20k went to permitting/zoning attorney fees, architect fees and other miscellaneous soft costs.Our zoning attorney came well recommended from other developers.

Hi all,I'm compiling a spreadsheet to help compare different potential out-of-state markets to buy and hold.Some hard and soft criteria include (1) job growth; (2) Population; (3) Diversity of Industry; (4) Housing Price Projections; (5) Landlord friendliness; (6) Real vacancy rates; (7) unemployment rate; (8) demographics (should target 18-64, am I right?) 

The doors and drawers are soft-close.

My hard cost plus some soft cost and a factor for my time.

Right now there does seem to be some "soft spots" in the market however, but it could be attributed to the holidays etc. 

Some lenders also don't do credit pulls, or they only do soft pulls, but this seems to be a minority.Your other option is to work with a broker for your loan needs. 

Condos in certain parts of the city at certain price points are really soft right now, such as Petworth north up to the border, EOTR, Hill East to name a few in the lower price points.

I had an agent that specializes in property in the MB, PB, La Jolla area look at some pricing for me to see if anything is even getting a little 'soft'. 

Please don't confuse this for being soft.
