I see a few reasons the cash flow on this is likely negative:20 year loan increases the expenses4% is not a good rate, esp for a 20 year duration.  

Keep in mind that when negative reports are true, about the only thing you can sometimes do is wait it out and let them fall off.

., that i was stupid and please give me another chance and delete the negative account.

In our case, we look at more than just the real estate statistics - we'll review demographic data (employment, net migration, income, permits, etc) and try to take a 360 degree view.

I only care about what's going on in my local market, I don't care about the overall statistics of the entire country as it doesn't tell me what's happening in my neck of the woods.

* Is there a negative employment/demographic/crime trend in this area that is harming occupancy and would make turnaround difficult?

i've noticed through the forums on here that some say dont buy in the rust belt for whatever their reasons are,and some are,i would like to know everyones opinion whether its negative or positive on buying multifamilies in these states of ohio,pennsylvannia,indiana,and michigan and being from out of state,reason being im finding quite a bit of deals their and some cheap prices.Anyone actually buying at all?

people overbidding daily and losing. but they were so happy they got the "reo" ... i am constantly calculating how much some of these "investors" are losing as i see their property dropping in price and margin diminishing to even and worse negative.

It would also be a way for investors to work together to fight against or for those rules.I hinted at the need for investors to work together to fight crazy rules that have a huge negative impact on our industry.

I need statistics to analyze for myself.
