There can be hundreds of things to consider, but the over all best approach in my opinion is to find a great (credible) turn key provider and see whatś the best they can offer (which still wont be near what you want). 

Consider this post a public service.Each Appraiser provides a similar service, but the manner in which they provide that service may vary.

or 2. hire a Property management company who provides multiple employees to cover your asset for 10% or less per month which probably works out to less than $2500 per month. 

The shorter the prepayment term has an impact on increasing the rate.4.

We decided to fight the charges and file a case in small claims court (not knowing the future impact of a dinged credit).

My goal is to have more financial freedom for myself and to provide a better future for my son.

What most often happens is that investors don't like the lower cap rates that prime corners provide, so they stretch their risk parameters to include similar properties but in weaker markets to get them the extra 1-2% increase on the cap rate.

While it would impact some business plans more than others,  its probably possible to function with 5-10% a year rent increases allowed and vacancy decontrol,   but if we get the more extreme variety like what the far left wants  (inflation or less for increases,   no vacancy decontrol,  etc)  it will be bad.    

I like to provide the fix and flip opportunities to local investors, and the stabilized cash flowing rental units to both local and out of state investors who are looking to add this type of product to their portfolios, as there are several, high quality full-service property management companies in the area. 

This way whether it was repaired in 1-3 days or replaced in 1-3 weeks, the tenant is only minimally impacted.
