I am making calculations to make sure my numbers and choices can make me a profit.The ARV is $109k to $129k.I have priced all my repairs and selections, rehab cast are in $12,500 range, I added 20 0/0 to cover overages etc, so let's say $15kMy purchase price is $30k (city owns house and 700 others and the are dumping them for cheap)So the cost I have included in caps are:Sales commissions on back endOriginal purchase priceHard money interest of 14 0/0 paid monthlyPer diem over 90 days ( part of hard money deal)The rehab costsClosing cost of purchase and sale sidesInsuranceTaxesElectric billWater billMight have a trash bill due to being in the cityWhat have I missed?

This blended solution is only possible, however, if the right equipment selections are made.4.

Everything depends on tenant selection and turnover.

Selection of your broker will be important depending on your plan.

Not terrific CF, but she won't have to wear a bullet-proof vest to visit her property and if her tenant selection is good, she can sit back, relax, and have her tenants buy those places for her.The places I have been buying are going for less than 1/2 of peak, newer and nice enough that I would have no problem living there myself (one of my criteria!).

I hope you are rather selective.

Jason, I don't want to turn you into a guru, but I just visited the forms selection offered.Would you consider updating the forms and contracts, having options, sandwich leases, note purchase agreements, etc. and making them available for the Pro Membership and perhaps with a reasonable price for those who don't go there?

Except for in a few select markets, if they bought it 5 years ago there is NO equity.

BE SELECTIVE!!!

You can't put money in a CD without implementing some small degree of management in selecting the CD, filing out the account information and making the deposit.Keeping this in mind, consider the skills required to any real estate transaction and in blending these economic functions.
