Deadlines coming up.

Brickell has almost no MF for sale atm and is almost entirely high rises with expensive and tightly controlled HOAs.  

Having $30k-40k can be tight when you consider the down payment, closing costs, and other expenses, unless you qualify for a VA loan.Remember that if you don't qualify for a VA loan, most properties with assumable loans will require you to be VA-approved, as sellers don't want to lose their entitlement.

I just recently bought my first house so cash is kind of tight but I want to add sources of cash flow more than ever now that I have a mortgage.

However, if you don’t have reserves and are tight on cash flow, it’s likely best to just sell and get into something that better suits your investment style.

One has a hard deadline otherwise the buyer may lose the home and the lender may lose the ability to provide the loan.

Says the rental market in town was that tight for a while.My only question is, are we doing too much below market?

The other group of Landlords that can't seem to handle Section 8 are those that are so tight on cash that they freak out if they go a month without rent between tenants.

Clear and constant communication regarding progress and deadlines is important with contractors, they're often overwhelmed dealing with a ton of moving parts and trying to juggle more than one customers expectations.
