When I went to the hub system I now keep say 48 total rolls in inventory and the cleaners keep 8 rolls in their cleaning supply bins and disburse as needed throughout their day, then refill their minimal supply the next morning.This also help remove the logistical nightmare of having to keep track of stock levels at all the places as opposed to just the 1 hub.I do the same with linens.

there was a group on Oregon that did about 35 of these after following a sub too guru.. they darn near ended up being indicted .. by the time 7 or 8 of the end renter/ lessors went dark on them the minimal positive cash flow on the others were not enough to service the debt and defaults were happening.. 

The loan amounts will drive the wholesale pricing, and flat per loan costs will be minimal relative to those typical loan amounts, short of cross selling this will typically be the best route (as a "median" customer, you really aren't seen by the big banks as worth taking a hit in the mortgage division to cross sell you other financial services, you're just a "median" customer and a number to them).

By that time, my contractors would have found another job, I would have paid my lender and insurance company money while receiving minimal compensation for that wasted time, and the seller has minimal incentive to leave in a reasonable time.

I don't like tax cheats either, but to insinuate that if Matt M. wants to use legal taxstrategies to minimize his taxes he should move to North Korea is a little over the top...make that way over the top. 

Minimize risk by capitalizing on local knowledge.

apparently the tenants brought in 4 portable heaters.as an investor, i think it wise to minimize your variable expenses, and getting tenants to take responsibility is just good business practice.  

The appraiser will have to be educated on the improvements done to the property or the reason why it was able to be purchase at the steep discount that it was purchased at and how you've got enough equity to refinance 100% of the outstanding loan on this property (hopefully you're at 70-75% of ARV or after repair value or lower).The strategy is great and all only if its artfully pulled off to minimize the risk on that exit appraisal. 

For dogs, we require rental insurance (minimal cost to the tenant), proof of the dog being registered with the city and up to date on shots, a $250 security deposit for the first dog + $100 security deposit for a second dog, $25 extra in rent per month, per dog (up to 2 dogs), with no pitbulls or pit mixes.
