Holly Springs is blending into the greater Cary market and should continue to see solid appreciation as well as fare well if the market shifts.

Sometimes things are uncovered in inspections which you can leverage for negotation.

This cost an extra $200 and uncovers things like utilities, code violations, etc.

You can also do this on your own, but the agent will be able to narrow down many options and if they're really good they'll uncover some gems or off market deals.What I suggest is doing basic deal analysis on each of the properties you visit and you'll improve the "math" skills that you mention you struggle with.

My friend/advisor with more experience says I am being a cheap knucklehead and that the $20k is not relative when you factor the forced appreciation and income/valuation of the improved asset(proforma), but, I think it is math and $20k is always relative and I have my criteria(4.5cap) and was very transparent about it from when I first submitted the original accepted offer, and my DD uncovered several hidden deficiencies that make the credit necessary to maintain my original underwriting numbers and even though I understand my friends rationale, I don't want to give in any more slack(adjusted to 4.4cap), than I already have...What do you experienced multi family acquisition people think?

Maybe uncovering this could lead you to a new sales angle.

And also, I love this property and will have a lot of fun for our family on the lake, it will teach us how to do ABnB better, and we will also be a blend of BRRRR meaning we are living in it, renting it at low cost for ABnB, and remodeling it as we go. 

I would only recommend it in certain circumstances such as when a material fact is uncovered during inspection that wasn't disclosed or factored into the price (it should be a good reason that perhaps neither party knew about).  

There is an additional uncovered parking space adjacent to the house which was intended to be reserved for repair persons, contractors, but they always street park.
