Whether it's rented or not won't impact the appraisal on a SFR because it's done on a comp sale basis, not an income basis.

It will also impact you (or others) when you go to refinance (you know investors love to pull cash out) and have to do that at a higher interest rate. 2.) 49% of the owners start using AirBnb and you have 51% of the owner-occupants that now either a.) don't love getting new neighbors on a weekly basis or b.) they become resentful that they can't take advantage of the "opportunity" to AirBnb. 

How will the imminent interest rate increases impact the multi-family market and real estate in general? 

But even if we are, it would be a small part, not making a major impact.

Just make sure to specify you want a "Soft Pull so that it does not impact my Credit."

Ensuring the property is clean environmentally might be the most important due diligence item; if you purchase a dirty site - REGARDLESS OF RESPONSIBILITY - you automatically assume all liability for said contamination.

It is just a matter of not screwing anything up.. which is bound to happen, I am just trying to mitigate the impact of it haha :). 

Avoiding an opportunity because there is a "chance, no matter how small" of a profit impact would eliminate all investments.A refinance on a property that will not decline in value or will only decline a small amount is tapping into profits (tax free).I have a portfolio of properties with GRMs around 5; so, I get it and put my money where my mouth is on the cash flow strategy. 

I'm so grateful for everyone chiming in.Based on the many opinions, I believe that removing the popcorn ceiling will not impact my rental income much one way or another.

The book has been cited by many as one of the books that propelled them into real estate investing and if that is true then it has had a great impact.
