You`re right,The No-Comp Conundrum surfaces when duplex comps are scarce, throwing a wrench in the appraisal gears.

I started off in webinars, reading posts from the outside, and planning of to get 'skin in the game' before posting.

For a deep clean, literally every surface must be cleaned, kitchens emptied and cleaned, light fixtures, the list goes on.

Not only could it save your skin, but also dissuade stupid lawsuits because you would be too hard to extract money from.

You need decent credit and some skin in the game. (15%-20% down + pay for closing costs)Typically when investors call me i will go over the numbers with them right on the phone and verify the deal fits our box / give pricing, then I'll take the time to do some comparable sale research to verify if your estimated ARV is within reason. 

We for example, are OK with "Cabin Style" under this brand-new definition - since this issues comes up frequently:Properties with “Cabin Design (Style)” per appraisalreport are eligible if Foundation Walls = Concrete Block Roof Surface = Metal or Shingles Heating = FWA Interior Walls = Drywall or Plaster

Flooding comes from surface water entering the home and is always covered by a separate policy from any home or landlord contract.2.

I like as much data as possible, Chris brought up great info, I run my own also; like for like sq ft bed/bath count, close radius, only closed sales in tight time frame, not separated by busy surface streets, pole line open space etc.

Again, other might feel differently here.b) Skin in the game: as a conservative investor, I understand that the dirty secret of industries that the waterfall compensation is in the line with me and incentivizes sponsors to take more risk.

In this business, like most other businesses, you have to be thick-skinned, assertive and inventive.
