I've seen burnt out units that didn't cost $35K to rehab. 

You can use an FHA loan with 3.5% down (That’s $7,000 cash out of your pocket) Then there are closing costs of a couple of thousand dollars.

And also maintenance labor costs are up 30% to 50%.

Buying an existing place that needs upgrading might be more sensible but it will still cost a lot of dough.Plus the purchase of the catamaran.

The market rent puts all three together at approximately $2900 monthly.Now here are the details and costs behind the acquisition:Property taxes: $5000 yearlyInsurance estimate for all three: $3,300 yearlyC-class properties (not best location, their condition is about average - older properties)Purchase price: $250,000k$15k down and $235k seller financed at 6% interest for 30 years. 5-year PPP. 

After experimenting with data, I achieved a 3.7% response rate from direct mail and am still receiving calls after 8 weeks.I’m not looking to sell anything; I genuinely want to understand more about effective marketing strategies before investing further in data and technology.

It costs maybe 25-50 bucks per month and the servicing company will provide all of the required documentation for their new lender. 

Redoing the titles and warranty deeds for our properties is costing us money I could have avoided if I had known better. 

Lock in effect is legit.
