Welcome to the site.I focus on commercial for investments specifically retail.

The current SDIRA administrator I am talking to says it's not mentioned specifically, and it's considered a gray area;  that most tax attorneys recommend to avoid it.

This formula is the Profit Margin Formula that accounts, for 99.99%, of everything.

Thanks They are state-specific.  

I almost at a point where I don't even bother with home inspectors.Some other common issues with older houses, particularly if you will be renting:  lead paint, asbestos, mold (although I find older houses are leaky enough that, as long as the roof drains well, air movement through the building is good and prevents moisture buildup), steep staircases, narrow hallways.But you MUST MUST MUST do a walk-through with an experienced contractor (one who specifically has experience renovating older houses/buildings) prior to placing an offer.  

Those buys look to have reasonable safety margins, just in case the appraisals fall a bit short, or the allowable LTV falls to 70% instead of 75%.

I'm looking specifically in Vancouver, WA.  

I would ball park $3,000 for an eviction but I don't know your specific situation so that number might be way off.

I've been able to cover my mortgage+HOA, but my margins are pretty thin to none due to the unexpected project cost.

Can you share some numbers to give us an idea what margin/ARV you have?
