I've just gotten started but I love talking about this stuff and evaluating deals.James

Hey Mark not sure how I missed this log of yours, it is inspirational thanks for posting it.Have you perhaps looked at IKEA for cabinets?

My team would be happy to help you evaluate any property you run across!

or like down in the deep south were they pretty much just use feller bunchers camp run prices should be cheaper.. a lot of our ground here the topography won't allow mechanical logging.

I would recommend logging out and doing a search as a user, this will help you determine how and why your listings show up.

Joe Papp When it comes to evaluating this expense, I recommend you build the cost into your projected financials.

Hello BP Community:  I would appreciate your help in evaluating a property for buy and hold potential. 

You may not want to wait the 4-5+ years for the market to get you to where you want to be.To tie my point in, people tend not to over pay in the investor market. 4plexs are classified as residential properties and have to be evaluated as such using the comparable approach  it is what it is. 

As someone who evaluates duplex deals in nearby Wisconsin, I get a similar figure, a bit lower CF, but I am very conservative with vacancy (10%). 

In case a buyer has enough money to buy a first property 100% in cash, how can you evaluate if it isn't better not to take a 100% downpayment and use leverage to increase returns?
