Percentage profits after PITI is 47%7.

In fact, when people call looking for a rental, I always ask them what they're looking for and a shockingly large percentage don't know.

One, is these around here are brownfields, meaning they're going up where there was once an industrial use of the property, and the ratio of OO to NOO in the neightborhoods is, along with foreclosures, driving up the NOO percentage of ownership.

It wasn't until 1971 that our currency was taken completely off the Gold Standard, but I understand the gold reserves backing up the currency had shrunk to such a small percentage, it didn't make that big a difference.I've heard opinions that say the Fed should be taken completely out of private hands (the member banks), but that would mean giving all control to the government.

I was thinking of purchasing a property and I would be the credit partner and she would be the partner with the money and then profits we would split in some percentage.

Take a look at how just two percentage points can change your payment: Loan $165,000 Rate: 3.5% Term: 30 years PAYMENT: $740.92Loan $165,000 Rate: 4.0% Term: 30 years PAYMENT: $787.74Loan $165,000 Rate: 5.5% Term: 30 years PAYMENT: $936.85You would be better off locking in a rate on a 15 or 30 year mortgage rather than having the worries that as interest rates increase your return decreases.To see if a HELOC will be better, make sure you calculate how much interest your will pay on this loan (higher interest rate + fluctuating) over lets say 5 years compared with a traditional 15 or 30 year mortgage.

I've also heard that lawyer fees can also be compensated as a percentage of the loan value being foreclosed (with a minimum value).

I'm sure if you'll poke around in old threads, you'll find lots of suggestions on how to evaluate your offer price, from people much more knowledgeable about flips than I.In general, there are formulas based on selling, carry and closing costs that go like this:ARV X 60% (or 65% or 70% depending on percentage of profit that a market will accomodate) less the rehab costs = MAO (Max allowable offer).

(Take away Queens, which accounted for well over half of the new foreclosures, and the percentage would be much lower.)

In this case, provided all the factors remain the same except the total note value, you could still reasonably expect a 20% discount rate as long as the equity percentage remained constant - always get at least 10% down.Varies from note buyer to note buyer - it can.
