Everyone seems to talk about including the costs of the new mortgage, taxes, insurance, maintenance & capital reserves, and the vacancy projections when looking at realistic cashflow, which we already do for all the properties in our rental portfolio.But we, like many, cant find properties that are making any cashflow sense right now.

Credit karma gave me a score of 711, I know it is an estimate but I found it weird one had a score yet the lender got none.

Often just the basics (Internal Cap Rate, DSCR, CoC, CF Rates), and disposition metrics (equity multiple, total return, annualized return, & GRM) are enough to determine a good deal.Just curious, what kind of internal cap rates are you estimating for these 4-unit properties once fully built & stabilized?

My properties are listed on both, but I keep spreadsheets on "issues" their resolution and how much it cost to resolve them. 

(My company has it’s general liability insurance, of course.)So, this is a temporary arrangement, at least for now.He will charge a fee to pull permits and to do periodic inspections to make sure my subcontractors are doing quality work but I will be project managing the entire job and handling all components of the renovation from design, floor plans, estimating, purchasing, hiring and overseeing the subcontractors, etc.The general contractor and I are regrouping next week to discuss what he would like to charge and I just want to get some feedback from you experts before we meet.

Finally, closing costs were reasonable.Cons-  Quality control of closing docs. 

However, I'm not sure which route is best.Option 1: Equity PartnershipIf he provides the full $230K, I cover closing costs and manage the property, and we split the cash flow 50:50, that would give us each $960 per month, $11,516 annually.

I’ve requested financial statements, tax history, utility costs, and information on the property management company.

When we do the construction loan, we'll take the cost you paid for your lot, your soft costs (plans, permits, property prep, etc) and add it to the build costs (keep in mind, we'll make sure those amounts are fluffed and that they make sense).

So, I have no idea how much money I owe for 2023&2024, how much money is actually mine, how to take advantage of tax deductions/credits/RE professional Status/ renovation costs/perform a cost segregation, if I really need a wealth manager at this point and how to take out my retirement investment and move it to a mutual fund I run independently.My ultimate goal: create systems for my corps to run smoothly and optimize business-related expenses,  keep my books up-to-date for both corps so I know my input/output, pay quarterly taxes throughout the year, give myself a modest monthly income and  continue to preserve/build wealth and grow my RE PORTFOLIO!
