@J Scott@Will BarnardFrom the property listings I've seen, expenses that go toward both the actual and pro-forma NOI calculation are vacancies, collection losses, property taxes, insurance, maintenance, legal and accounting (if any).

Ever tried to collect rent from a tenant that is past due?

They take pictures, collect the information from the seller that I told the seller to have ready when they called and I set the appt.So I pay a "courier" fee to the individuals.Time is the great equalizer.

Obviously, deposit and balance of purchase price above any new mortgage as well.Certainly, some markets have prevalent practices which may vary somewhat.

What about including a collection procedure notice in your move in packet or given with your lease.

As you build success collect references so that you can let others speak for you.

Similar to how user feedback is collected to see if the site is being used the way the designers expected.I was not complaining or saying that you were doing a bad job.

It is still based on gross collected rents, but I saw this kind of service for vacation rentals in Florida go for 20% of collected rents.

If interest rates go up or down the lender can change what they earn and better line up the interest income vs. what they bank has to pay out to the folks who give the the money (depositors, wholesale money lenders).The other alternative is for the bank to sell the loan to someone who has cash and wants to hold a long as an asset (investing in loans) to collect the income.

Yes but only if you know exactly what you can and can not do.Viable and practical.
