She even offered a trade for it.

If hey hold their own loan they can make their own decisions.

One city near me had a decision to make when new construction slowed down - lay off inspectors or start inspecting rentals.

First let me congratulate you for making a wise decision by not blowing money you can invest on "guru programs".

Many of those decisions will be up to the house flipper, so what is your advice on how detailed of a repair cost to provide for the flipper.Would the buyer want just a $/sq. ft. or would you like to see a detailed breakdown of each room with dimensions and current finishes and the suggestions from the wholesaler of repairs?

Another general indication is where A+ commercial trades with regard to Capitalization Rate, somewhere around 5% +/-.

Do my due diligence and make my decision based on that information...not to be a nice guy.Thanks!!

Screen what you go after...Quality not Quantity.Not sure if this helps, there are rule of thumbs, tricks of the trade, experience, intuition, etc...

I have seen a property that 26 people pooled their money into and then were unable to make any decisions so property was allowed to get run down.

While I can understand to have the happy feeling of not writing that check to the bank every month, consider this decision approach:Look at the available investments.- Refi the mortgage has a return of about 4.6% (less refi fees)- Paying off the mortgage has 7.8%, but not really, because he could refi and only pay 3.2%, so the return is 3.2%.
