Not dry closings. either way is fine..

As far as DR, I laughed out loud at @Bob Bowling comment, but he's dead on.

I will interview his past Sellers to find out if he did everything he promised or left them high and dry.3) Excellent knowledge of the construction trade, cost estimating ability, local code and zoning laws, and project time schedules to bring a rehab in on budget and on time and in conformance with the law. 

A 9% cap rate on a particular property might seem very high to an investor in midtown Manhattan, while the same rate could seem very low to someone in Upper Dry-Rot County.I don’t want to invent any new terminology (we have enough already) but perhaps a way to wrap your mind around this is to start by recognizing that the market cap rate is, as I said, the rate of return other investors are actually achieving for a given property type in this location.

These are the people that do the work that no one else is willing to do, harvesting crops, digging ditches, cleanup and all other forms of outdoor manual labor in the baking dry heat of Central California.  

  $40x would take much longer or much greater scale to allow the investor to amass an equivalent amount of reserves/dry powder for the next purchase.The time value of money would suggest that investors prioritize obtaining reasonable cash flow up front to be reemployed and creating more value over time (i.e. having your money make you more money).  

Cost a few hundred to dry out and $1500 for the ceiling (removed popcorn in the whole bedroom).

They will send a check within a few days just be careful some whole life policies will milk you dry so make sure you get the right one.

For an ex-military man who considers doomsday scenarios, Orlando has the added appeal of sitting high and dry well above sea level for the sake of flooding and hurricanes.
