Intetionally or accidentaly the end buyers will not give your deals as much weight if they aren't convinced you find real deals.

A light weight script that has very few features will not cut it.

You do understand that Virginia case only carries weight in Virginia?

Hi Austin as Mark alluded too, cap rate valuations typically are not used or weighted heavily for non-commercial properties (5-units or less). 

If your intention is to only live there for a year or two, I would definitely put more weight on this calculation to make sure it makes sense as an investment.Hopefully you find this helpful.

It is delightfully refreshing to see so many want to ensure the integrity of such a program goes untainted so that others can continue to benefit from it, and makes me certain that just because I had one bad experience, doesn’t hold any weight on the quality and character of future military tenants I may have the opportunity to work with.

@George Adams  you would be a great borrower for any lender .. i would break out lender vetting process for commercial deals as below 1) Borrower's credit worthiness - Check for you2) Borrower's over all cash flow out side subject property to cover notes if needed3) Cash flow and projection for subject property (heaviest weight) 4) Willingness for lender to loan into property category (i.e. some lender will not lend for multi families etc) Once you find a lender who is loaning for you target property then you should be golden.

When reviewing the financials of said franchisee how much weight is put on the actual ownership of the personal assets?
