Hi Jeff, I don't have any new build experience in Florida but am interested as I just listed 2 vacant plots adjoining a rental property I have in Deleon Springs, Volusia County, FL. 

Life companies are still game but definitely tightening the guidelines and requirements.It will be interesting to see how office and retail sector change through this and the real effects on the CMBS markets with the inevitable defaults coming due the pike. 

I'm trying to refine my deal analysis skill through trial and error and one problem I'm running into that is effecting my profit is when to decide if I'm going to be paying for water, power, and garbage?

Regarding your questions, in my opinion, you should look at your HELOC as one of many funding sources  & for every deal you should analyze which funding source (cash, your HELOC, refinancing one of your other multifamilies,....) is the most effective to use.

Purchase price is what is required to figure out ROI ("I" is effectively the purchase price), operating income doesn't play any role in the purchase price.

SPG actually is trading at high BV multiple precisely because they own a lot of malls that are high end, with restaurants and high end retail (the kind of stuff people don't buy online) that have done well for years despite the Amazon effect.

Put these changes in writing with exactly what you are offering and how long that offer is in effect.

;-) Sounds great...right up to the point where:1 - the pet owner gets a new pet...2 - or adds one so the original pet isn't alone all day and pees all over.3 - or that small pet gets replaced by a larger one4 - or has babies5 - ...and the list goes on and onYou can write whatever you want into the lease, and it will have little effect, and almost impossible to monitor and then enforce.Dogs bark.

The RV park is suffering because it has been effectively closed to anyone that doesn't live there long term.
