If you're turnover on a flip is 1-2 months, and/or you're doing high volume, these rates and terms still make great sense.Also keep in mind, that often times a lender will offer more favorable rates to investors who are repeat borrowers with them, and who will bring a lot of business.

My most recent assessment of the retail sales market: prices are flat-to-depressed, but time on market and sales volume are up.

They still did it though because it was part of their own business strategy (VOLUME) and it paid off. 

Many small volume landlords don't realize the access and value they could have through their apartment association. 

I could literally write VOLUMES of books about this post.  

The volume has more than made up for the difference in our fee structure, and our owners aren't going anywhere.The biggest "value add" of a property manager is two fold: treat the property like it is your own, and don't treat your owners like your private piggy bank.

So far the volume I'm doing hasn't made that a big isuue.  

I accept time and material contracts, i have 3-5year contracts, small volume but 50-100k is 50-100k per contract per year.

If a real estate investor came to you and wanted to sell you a volume of cash flowing properties, would you want to pay a premium, or would you want a discount for buying in bulk?

When flipping bank owned properties on a larger scale than the average investors, are investors putting down EM on every house?
