I would have no problem to add the extra cash if they dont want to negotiate, and if I feel like I really want the house.2) i see in this website people hoping that the houses they are trying to buy appraise at the offered price.

I know that MF properties are valued by the revenue it generates but I still want to compare since we are reaching out directly to owners and dont want to go in completely blindsided.

I visited the city of hoboken tax collection website and checked out some records, and it appears that if I rent out my existing property it will still have the same property tax, which is a relief.

If they don’t vacate, give it maybe a week and start the eviction process.If you’re feeling generous you can give them some numbers or website for some shelters or non profits, but beyond that there’s not much you can do.Only other thing is maybe give them their deposit back, but if they owe you rent, I wouldn’t do that.Good luck

I note that you asked specifically about “cash-flows”, which has multiple components each treated differently for tax purposes.In general, you can start with NOI, next you have debt service and cap ex, which can get you to cash-flows.The interest portion of your debt service is tax deductible (possible subject to limitations) and the principal portion is not because you get basis in the asset for the loan principal, which generates a depreciation deduction.Similarly, cap ex is generally not deductible currently but the expenditure is capitalized and depreciated, similar to the initial basis in the asset.In summary, you have cash and non-cash tax items that cause your taxable income to differ from your cash-flows and taxable income * tax rate determines your tax liability.

I am looking to create a web site for our property business.

Most deals I'm seeing generate 3% cash on cash, optimistically.   

The owner of this online 'website' is a man named Frank LaMark (google Frank LaMark scam or fraud) you will find many others who have been scammed by him also.

I appreciate all of the hard work and resources that this website provides. 

I am looking to dive in the world of real estate investing with the hopes of generating some passive income and one day becoming financially independent.
