I'm going to take a look at the home with a specialist and begin crunching numbers.

I crunched my numbers over the weekend and did my comps as best I could.

When you crunch the numbers, multi-family properties win every time for long term buy and hold in Bakersfield.I tell my clients "If you want a profitable flip, buy a home.  

I like having an additional income, I like to crunch numbers, I like when my kids are with me when I go see properties so they learn business at early age, and I like to be a part of this game.

I know what I am doing and have been in much smaller time crunches and done a lot more trades in the short amount of time.  

As I've been crunching my numbers I always tend to come to the point where I realize, I will be occupying half of  this 2-unit property so when it tells me the cash flow I get a negative result.

We have funding to totally gut and remodel them, but we will be in a crunch if we cannot get renters in quickly.

Hey man sounds good I'm also new and looking at deals and crunching the numbers.

I think I will ultimately still crunch the numbers of some deals on the MLS just for the practice. 

In these 7 days of insane roller coaster, we managed to arrange some hard money for financing, set up an appraisal to estimate a property we hold for the purpose of the loan approval, arrange an inspection, meet 2 contractors and crunch the rehab numbers so they make sense, find out that the lender can not 100% finance the deal as hoped, get discouraged but somehow, on a late-night phone call arrange some cash from a family member, and all that only to discover a day before closing, that the seller had $140,000 of liens against the property..The deal fell apart.
