Not in a bad way, but in a good one.Buying your own materials helps the investment company to control it's costs and maintain profitability.

Additionally, I know there are floor finishes available that have higher Coefficients of friction, but whether those are available for granite, and how costly they are to maintain are another matter.

Do not let your tenant maintain the pool or let them chose the pool company.

ive heard that the allure floor has the really bad chemical smell when you install it and the pergo havent heard anything bout a smell and its scratch resistant and easy to maintain hope this helps and it like 30.00 a bundle

If it were me I would keep it and maintain it myself.

.- Who is going to maintain the exterior of the building?

No Ellis, they aren't the same.LTV and combined loan to value is just one aspect.A purchase money second can go to 90% of the purchase/appraised value, being 80/10/10 for example for a homeowner, owner occupied, it's much different funding that to a flipper for construction or renovation, that's a different thing.Ability to pay, credit, collateral, remaining equity, use of funds, loan concentrations, amounts at risk and size of the loans all play on risks.

That's not cool. 22 year old recent college grads still want to party, don't know how to maintain a home, and are whiny-- in general.

Hi All,I have recently found a great looking multifamily rental that has good return and very well maintained.

I'm a relatively new investor myself and don't want to deal with vacancy, bad tenants who don't pay rent or maintain the property well, so I try to say in decent areas (B-, B, B+) and avoid the war zones, even though they can look good from a cash flow perspective.Hope that helps!
