I was trying to eliminate or reduce the taxes.

FED is reducing rates another .25% at the next meeting.

I really do not want to back out of the deal, but curious if I could negotiate a reduced price or something of the sort.

Optimize your finances by reducing debt, boosting credit, and maintaining strong cash reserves.

However, some investors don't mind this strategy if they prefer not to put a lot of liquid in up front and plan to refi out within a few years of closing (which seems to be a great option with the talks of the FED reducing interest rates into 2025).It really comes down to investing in a growing market, in a good neighborhood & building a great team to support you.

I am considering constructing a modular home which should reduce the construction period to 4-6 months versus traditional home construction.

Maybe talk to your GC and see what finishes you are getting exactly and try to reduce some cost there?

of course all of those things help cash flow but is it realistic will it work.also your more than 300 negative as you have no money for maintenance or cap ex.the easiest way is to reduce debt. or if you think there is really good upside just pay the negative its just a small number who cares . 

So our cash flow was reducing during our hold due to poor ADR increase and large insurance and prop tax increases.  

Even if I have tenants who are further below market rent than I wish they were I do well because I have reduced vacancy/turnover.
