With rates as high as they are and RTVs this low, I'll probably barely breakeven (if that) if I did standard 80LTV.I like cash flow.

Are these worth repairing?

We are in the process of screening a tenant which of course includes verifying rental history.

Calculating the cash flow for both properties:Property A: $1,800 x 12 - $2,000 - $1,500 - $250 x 12 = $15,100/YrProperty B: $1,600 x 12 - $800 - $600 - $35 x 12 = $17,380Property B is the better property once operating costs are included.SummaryBecause the rent price ratio does not include recurring costs, it almost always provides invalid results.

Are you generally seeing cash flow positive deals from day 1?

I am trying to get a neutral scheme that will appeal to a range of tenants, and by doing so leaning towards a more natural or darker wood look instead of a grey for the floors but there are a bunch of color options.Any opinions or tips in the matter are much appreciate, and if anyone has used this color scheme with Lifeproof flooring before that would be great!

Large rent increases are much harder and than smaller yearly increases.  

They sent me their seller intake form with a list of properties that are being sold and a form for the new investors.

Fix and flip will be tougher in Tampa right now as insurance costs are very high so vacant insurance while doing a flip is probably in the stratosphere.

You have options and that equals power.
