Some companies offer discounts on certain products or bulk orders, so it really helps to look around.

- What are some methods for projecting cash flow from home sales and determining an appropriate discounted cash flow (DCF) rate?

While they are living there and doing renovations, I will discount the rent and apply the discount to the renovations.

Some HIs will walk the property with you for a steep discount and tell you what they see to inform your offer.

It would involve putting an external staircase on the side of the house and making the second bathroom into a full bath.

Remember not to discount your primary home as an investment.

Try looking into zillow/Redfin and see what your potential rents you can get near the neighborhood by filtering the bedrooms/bathrooms of the intentional property that you are planning to buy.

I haven't been expanding my business with LMHA since the end of 2016 per my posts above so I don't know exactly what changed, but I expect the outsourcing of inspections to private industry + some executive level leadership + replacement of staff with new faces excited to serve the needs of HUD/Landlords/Those In Need has resulted in an agency I will develop more business with.The HCVP will always be a double edged sword for landlords (See Section 8 Bible discussion) but for now I have discovered it is finally worth the effort to participate in the program.I specialize in Toledo's transition neighborhoods, discounted houses on the edge of nicer areas but also on the edge of trash...the Section 8 program allows me to get long-term tenants who are a good business model provided they are consistently managed and visited/inspected for additional "visitors" (relatives and random dogs/cats) and damage/housekeeping which can destroy a home if left unchecked.You need to know the rules, repair and renovate for long-term durability, prepare for inspections thoroughly and keep a team of contractors who will hold those standards...after 8 years we have been through a hundred inspections.

I don’t discount my units.
