I've identified a property of 10 duplexes that I'm considering purchasing. It is currently experiencing high vacancy levels (50% :shock:) and those units that are rented are at below market rents. My assessment is tha...

@Kris Haskins,Hi Kris, Thanks for taking time to reply to my query.

Isaac, I'd be happy to build a search query for you of properties meeting your criteria.

I'm sure that landlord has just as many queries, and maybe he doesn't need my referral at all - but if advertised a referral fee I'll see about taking advantage of that.

Further more, you can go through our forums https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums and you can find some helpful advises there or can post your queries there so potential members can answer to you.

Just for clarification, my query isn't about the cash flows, just the discount rate.  

I strongly believe If I don't keep the pressure on him to get back to me he wont get things accomplished on time, also believe I have gained by doing this in terms of rents and tenant finding.Currently trying to get a property under contract and on one of my recent queries about a contract document he totally snapped and started complaining about how I pester him a lot and went to the extent of saying he does not need my business unless I let him work in his own pace and wait for him to get back in his own time (wont specify how long), so we are at odds in terms of our communication expectations.
