Chris Feltus Determining ARV: Am I doing it correctly? [Pictures and pdf Comps inside]
2 May 2012 | 15 replies
Thats with an accurate estimate of bot ARV and repairs.I did not read your whole post as it is too long for my attention span, but I pull comps as follows: 1 mile radius+/- 10% sq.ft.Same # of storiesSame constructionFrom there, I will narrow down by (not in any order):Pools +/- $12,000Lot size +/- $1/sq.ftBed/Bath +/- $5000-$8000Garage +/- $4000/garageI favor remodeled comps and comps in the neighborhood, but an appraiser will rarely use all comps from one neighborhood.These values are for my market and I adjust them after reviewing more recent appraisals.
Jerry D. First time eviction
3 May 2016 | 45 replies
I do not know about Texas but in Georgia you do need a team of at least 3 people to move them out.Once you get the writ the writ here costs 20 dollars and then you have to wait for the writs to go to the Marshall's office from the eviction office.Depending on the county some are really backed up in serving the writs.Some have over 800 in one month.This is why Marshall's get very mad if you do not have the people when they get out there.If you are a one man band it could take hours instead of 15 to 20 minutes with a professional crew or one of your own.If you can get a good enough deal it's better to use the crew the Marshall's uses the most.The company gets a list from landlords filing the writs and they usually call you.Most tenants are long gone before the Marshall comes out but after the writ is filed.Only maybe 5% stay there till the end.I have had it happen once before and the rest were gone way before then.When evicting see if you can do a property inspection of the unit.We made a mistake before of just looking at the lower level on inspection.Then when we did the eviction and had 4 people helping us they didn't have much on the main level but upstairs was packed to the brim (wall to wall).

Asher Anthes Is this a good way to estimate ARV?
15 May 2012 | 8 replies
I would narrow down your radius to a half mile, and not go back more than six months.To get a good conservative estimate, I would recommend, throwing out the lowest comp, then using the next 3.
Marcus Roberts What's the difference between simultaneous close and a double close?
11 June 2012 | 14 replies
I think it's safe to say we are in a bad day phase and that escrow agents and most title companies are reluctant to funnel money backwards.The simul close thing, with one escrow and and principals A, B, and C I've never actually seen happen in 12 years of buying and selling.
