After thinking about the best way to work a double close i'm thinking a motivated seller wanted to get out of a property would understand that legally a sale would not take place until they have recieved the consideration stated in the contract.With that being said, I think I could get a sellers to come to closing and sign a deed to be held in exscrow and explain to them the deed legally cannot be recorded until they have recieved to good and valueble consideration as stated in the contract.Then get the buyer to arrive at a later point and finish the transaction pay the seller whats needed to satisfy the contract?

In a nutshell, I spoke with one of their sales reps for about a week before the sign-up, asked lots of questions, got lots of positive feedback (as well as immediate callbacks), and the FedEx with the "program" and membership info arrived as expected a week later.

I know how to arrive at the price I should purchase the property for but I am having an issue calculating what the ARV is going to be so I can set an attractive selling price to get the property sold quickly.

If you can keep your operating expenses down, you can increase that retrun through good management.I arrived at those numbers with the following:$21k cash invested, $500 gross rent, less $250 expenses (based on 50% rule) X 12 months = $3k $3k divided by $21k = 14.3% ROI.What I like best about your story is that you did not budge when you receievd the "have another buyer above ask price" and stuck to your guns.

You can wind up with a artificial valuation too low or too high.We need to make investors understand that our cap rate was arrived at by X .

Just arrived in Colorado yesterday and been driving around all day trying to find a place to rent.

Make sure to take all of the comps you used to arrive at the ARV and explain to the seller that those properties were in great condition and received top dollar.

@MikeH How do you arrive at a figure for a monthly appreciation amount?
