My sister has a decent sized rental portfolio and has seen her cash flow totally eroded over the past 5 years even after refinancing all the properties to rock bottom interest rates during the pandemic due to the tax increases, and many of them are more than 2/3 of the way paid off.

Analyze potential investment properties based on factors such as purchase price, renovation costs, potential lease revenues, vacancy rates, property taxes, insurance costs, and ROI .

Im looking for ideas from other investors that are requesting Vacancy rates from their property manager.

There are a lot of these coming about now due to people having such a low interest rate.

He should have kept his mouth shut on that since he had no clue the going rate for that type of roof. 

@Richard Heck just sell them yourself i put mine 10 bed and 6 bed on bizquest and also contacted local realtors and local schools that train administrators and managers for ALFs,  , i get 5 inquiries a day 

At these rates, it seems like it would be better (for now) to wait on the sidelines and get a high-dividend REIT.So my questions are:1.

Since the interest rates are high right now and prices pushed back a little bit I thought about doing an owner finance on a five year balloon.Thinking about paying it off in full and then turning around and doing an owner finance at a value somewhere between its current condition value and the ARV.

I told them I didn't want to do the consortium deal, so they offered me another one where I would need to pay a 30k USD down payment and have an EIGHT PERCENT INTEREST RATE.

I got my Va to create a spreadsheet and call all of them for rates, amenities, and if they where at capacity.
