Dee, I highly recommend you use a landlord attorney to prepare a lease for you.

Owing to the trend towards smaller,  more efficient appliances and LED lighting  electrical loads I think are somewhat less than they may have been per SF like in the 70's through 2000's when everybody had incandescent lighting and big tube TVs and refrigerators, dishwashers,  etc. that used 2 or 3x as much power as modern ones.I've had a couple turn-of-century units rewired to remove K&T and failed 'BX" (flexible steel sheathed  2 wire cable)  and agree with other posters the pricing isn't that bad as long as you can find an electrician that has some experience with that kind of work,   and sometimes it might be helpful to open up some cable routes ahead of time for them to use so they don't have to do the exploratory work.   

Your traditional hard money doesn't eat your profit, they charge you a high rate.3. $150/month in cash flow is not something to hope for.

It's safe to say that your HOA will increase each year especially with inflation, how high rates are right now and will continue into 2025.

They aren't tax savvy and neither are high income earners (both very low income/retired) and won't really entertain any savings strategies.

@Vanessa SwitzlerI live and only invest in Greenville SC.It’s a great place to live and a great place to invest.It appears we have similar approaches doing JV and smaller syndications though we did do a deal with 281 units, too.My only caveat would be that I don’t consider Greenville to be a cash flow market - the growth is too strong and the demand too high.

Loom is a great platform for adding all SOPs to video form - huge timesaver when it comes to onboarding, training, and familiarizing your staff with current systems- Create a tiered compensation structure for agents to incentivize the high-performersHope this helps!

Quote from @Mavely Pazmino:We want to use a hard money lender and use HELOC for 20% down payment… should I be worried that once I buy and rehab I wont get a high enough ARV to refinance in order to payback my HELOC and HML?

Highly support the cause Gustavo!!!  

For commercial spaces - I prioritize a long term / cheaper tenant over a high rent with the potential for vacancy.
