I'm not out to play games with the seller by tying it up while I fool around with trying to find financing or another end buyer.

Employee bonuses are based on the accuracy of their home bids and rental estimates.After submitting a bid, Starwood Waypoint employees visit the home with iPads and take it through a 45-minute inspection, marking what renovations need to be made.

Play to your skills.  

But, they did offer to come down 3% on the value...The county is obviously playing hardball and trying to raise taxes.

That said I am open to mixing in other models as they would apply such as flipping, straight cash flow, as the opportunities presented themselves.In any case, I am wondering if I should focus on a SFH acquisition for my next play, or a multi family property.  

I wouldn't mind getting a few email alerts set up for properties that meet my criteria so I can start to play around with the numbers.

I'm also not familiar with banker's appetites if non-bank refi's are in play.  

I have not been responsible for the selling of our currrent properties, but Intend to change that and see what kind of effect offering something like a closing bonus of $10,000 gift card would have on selling properties at higher margin or (at least as negotiating tool).  

I don't play the price game.  

@Navin Kumar I've done deals worse than that, but it was always an appreciation play in a hot market.
