If you’re looking for speed, flexibility, and a customized solution for your investment, private money lending is a great choice, even if the interest rate is higher.

Regarding property management, utilizing local property managers can save you time, and using PropStream effectively for filtering properties by distress level and location will certainly help with finding stronger deals.

I've reached out to customer service and received little assistance.

I'm utilizing social media to the fullest with multiple groups that are centered around moving to Florida.

I'm a member of one local STR page that vets owners by requiring they see a utility bill with the address and the owner's name.

The one percent and 2 percent rule ive never looked at ... cap rate is .. meh .. its there - what im most concerned with is the price of the home relative to comparables and cash on cash to start.   9)  I look  the other way if it is a multi unit that is not separately metered - thats always one of my criteria here in pgh as there are a lot of older homes and a good portion you wind up worrying about who will cover utilities.  

Inspection Costs - $400 Lender Fees - $1,000 Closing Costs - $2,000 Mortgage Payments - $2,500 Property Taxes - $600 Utilities - $1,000 Insurance - $200 Commissions - $4,000 Selling Closing Costs - $4,000 Home Warranty - $500 Termite Letter - $100 MLS Fees - $100 

UTILITIES: Water and sewer service and curbside trash removal are provided to you.

@Justin Woods In order to utilize a cost segregation study, the property must be an investment property and placed in service.

Instead, can you just cover the utilities or go to the laundromat.
