.$700K = Multiple parties are arriving at this number as their bid

Might you get a buyer, sure, but you want multiple buyers bidding on the home.If your property "sits" in this market, in this town, people will think there is something wrong with it. 

If you do not like how the numbers/cashflow look after a refinance, then I would suggest selling and taking the profits to roll into your next deal (preferably multiple units).

Thanks for the insight, I have calls with multiple new lenders this week and will ask them about this.

We would likely net ~200K and are looking to buy multiple properties in different states.

I have recently acquired some information on multiple redeemable deeds in these counties.

Work with a good mortgage broker who has multiple lenders and programs.

The LVT is easier to work with than brittle tile that may chip or crack when you try to shape it just right. .And if there are multiple tubs with the same base profile, it will go pretty quick once you have a template.It won't be that bad....don't overthink it.....With the "crown molding" look to the bottom of the white tub, there may be a slight flare/lip to the very base...probably not, but just a thought if you are trying to put a piece of quarter round up against it$2200/month for 1 bedroom units...... damn....that's coastal CA for ya.....

In these type of situations it’s best to play by their rules and make an offer you are comfortable with and not change it when they come back asking for more or telling you they have multiple offers.

Get the occupancy they are proposing and if it is a single family or multiple unrelated people.
