Purchase price: $341,000 Cash invested: $136,000 Sale price: $519,000 A house that I bought, renovated, and sold.

In my case, flood insurance was under $1800/yr and for the numbers made complete sense for me as a good deal with that added cost.4) Flood zone AE does not directly impact resale value, but can reduce the number of buyers considering your property which can lead to slower sale through time and potentially lower prices.  

The increasing barrier to entry results in fewer new STR's coming available for sale, but also fewer options for guests to rent. 

I have my second flip under contract and I decided to give Capital 360 a chance to finance this one.

It just depends what your buy-box is... but we normally build to an 8-9% cap rate on the sale side.

Say they sold the properties over 3 year period and could not sell the rentals together as a portfolio.Could they put the money from each sale into a DST then use the total to buy a expensive rental property?

@Zach Denny - I agree - chances are the institutional lender won't be comfortable with an owner-financed 2nd and 100% combined loan to value.

Are you basing this solely on what you can afford, or what you intend to make on it, or your target sale price?
