If more in depth questions are asked explain your company policy of how much you expect to earn, how much you can expect in surprises, etc.A Realtor is probably going to know/be close to your ARV so you can probably share with them.

Window goes higher than the ceiling

I suspect it will look weird because there won't be a flush connection due to the gap of the window depth...Raising the ceiling to the roof line would be awesome, but also unnecessarily expensive for a rental.Thoughts??

Thanks in advance :) Jared you'll need to know a range of cap rates for your specific:-structure age and condition-tenant base or type of renterYou go get comps of most recently sold multi family buildings in your range of units 25-35 units.You look at the NOI / Sales Price = cap rateSo first you have to understand what a cap rate is what is a NOI is and how to calculate itHow you can manipulate NOI or CAP rate to make a seemingly good deal as a bad deal You have to know the difference between a bad deal or a good deal otherwise you might be setting yourself up for some hard times.Most agents have no clue (in depth) about what cap rates really other than its a formula of NOI / sales price = them selling a property to you to make a commission and its a number you as an investor look for.To determine which cap rates you're willing to invest in you'll have to know how the "cap rate," and this subject property will affect your financial statements otherwise you have no way to plan and you're purely "winging it."
