Do you bring an entire plan of when/amount of future price reductions and average DOM for similar properties?

I've set up similar smelling opportunities for tenants in the past, but it is always a separate agreement, never a rent reduction or anything that alters the signed lease.

If he wants $75k, the give him $75k but ask for a 0.5% reduction in the interest rate, or amortize it to 30 years.

Inspection report revealed no show-stoppers but the overall interior condition warranted a modest reduction our offering price, which they just accepted.

As someone has said I would be requesting that the seller provide a credit/background check on this tenant and if this tenant is not a good tenant, I would redo my numbers accounting for additional vacancy because his situation does sound volatile and you may have to part ways with him sooner than later and after accounting for vacancy it may warrant for an additional price reduction.

If you refi 10 years into a 30 year loan, your rate of principal reduction is impacted negatively.Think about that next time you're tempted to refinance!

I also benefit from better banking terms as they underwrite to the whole portfolio, which recently has gotten me a 5% reduction in down payment.  

It's a huge reduction in my previous expense though from when I was renting.

Obviously your FICO and experience will assist in dictating your rates and terms, but you are likely to see around 65-75% MAX LTV on a cash-out for a 1-4 unit, Foreign nationals can expect to see a 5% reduction in LTV.Hope this helps!

^ I pulled down a 68% price reduction between asking price and what we bought the home for with this approach last week.
