I am currently going through the BRRRR process for a 2-flat.

On the 3 flat,  I think our bigger down payment and financing plan helped the seller feel like we were most likely to close vs others who had FHA financing. 

While we may see multiple reduction/cap rate decompression, top line revenue and NOI growth will grow at a faster rate, which is the numerator in the value equation (NOI/Cap Rate = Value), so we will likely see prices continue to rise or at least stay flat.

I would like to replace the flat roof.

I have about 10 tenants who flat out refuse to cooperate...I believe they think they'll be outted as cheating the system.  2-3 other tenants are older or computer illiterate - very frustrating and not optimistic it'll go through 

I have done a flat fee instead of charging for utilities which has worked really well for me.

The company that I work with has a flat fee structure which cuts out the leasing commission and makes the revenues from the rents much more stable.

Traditional insurance coverage, RV’snormally stay a flat rate throughout the year, thus you will stillneed to maintain full coverage.

It very well could be true, some sellers don’t have the experience of a deal falling through due to a financing contingency, and some just flat out don’t care and want their magical number.

My business partner and I have 240+ rentals in the Chicago market all single families and 2-4 flats.
