If it's vacant and really needs cleaning/repairs, then I'll wait until it's more presentable.2.

So you’ll be at least presentable when you apply for mortgage financing. 8.

I assume you could take a similar approach with Redfin, Realtor etc etc.There are STR sites like Rabbu that present deals regularly but not sure if these are sold furnished. 

They are harder to sell, which presents additional risk.Finally, there could be refinance risk. 

There's nothing like the present.

I would really appreciate if you can share your present experience with Nomad Lease.

For most multifamily, I'm seeing on 30 year amortization to boot.Reminder for the lurkers that this has nothing to do with single family homes, 1-4 unit residential all gets residential mortgage financing, which isn't presently as good as commercial.Odd world where the 8-unit property has a payment that is less than twice as much as the fourplex, even though it pulls in twice the rents, and has less than twice the maintenance expense (the price of the fourplex is likely to be more than half the price of the 8-unit, and more than 1/5th the price of OP's 20-unit, holding constant location etc, but that's another rant for another day).

We stayed in touch with sellers, following up with them even when they weren’t ready to sell.We listened to their concerns, stayed present, and maintained relationships for years.

BUT if you were bullish on the opportunity presented, the starting point would be getting a home inspection (usually $500-$750).

At the end of the conversation with my RE agent, I asked them to repeat back to me how they'll present my offer, and nothing.
