I work with international investors looking to invest in US real estate.

For my internal analysis, I want to know how my property is going to do over the long haul based on the cash I have left in (long term average Cash on Cash Return).  

Any lender can do delayed financing, but some might have their own internal guidelines for the waiting period or which appraisal to use (original or post rehab appraisal).

In addition to flats and houses, we also have a location where we rent furnished rooms to international students and they tend to be among the least problematic of all our tenants - they are here to study and {someone is} paying a lot of money for the opportunity.When we do take on undergraduate tenants, they are normally in their final couple of years and our screening process filters the would be partiers and we are left with the mostly responsible.  

I will also agree with both @Alan Sue and @David Faulkner On the more conservative side, international investing can be tricky, and you do have to consider any tax implications of living and earning over seas, though there may be none in your specific situation (not my area of expertise, but something to check into).

I am currently interning with a real estate investor, so I have been trying to pick up what I can even though they do commercial properties over residential.

That has no bearing on what appraisers actually do.Using NOI as your internal valuation the way you are means that for any situation where an owner occupies, your valuation is flawed and you may be missing out on a great deal because your metrics do not understand how to deal with that scenario.

Thus, S-corp becomes more valuable once you start making more money.Any advice contained in this post is not intended or written to be used, and cannot be used, for the purpose of (i) avoiding penalties under the Internal Revenue Code or (ii) promoting, marketing or recommending to another party any transaction or matter that is contained in this document.
