Management should get off their sorry rear ends now and begin the process of attempting to find a replacement tenant with the hoped for goal of a new lease starting in January 1st, 2018.If a new tenant is found sooner (and a lease is started on, say December 10th) and there is no damage above normal wear and tear to the rental unit then management would need to return the difference in rent back to the original (now departed) tenant (minus any expenses for advertising the unit to get it re-rented).The entire point is that it is totally untrue that the rental unit has to remain empty for the remainder of the lease while property management sits around doing nothing.Gail

One way that is not foolproof but will give you a good estimate is to only look up properties that have not been sold for 30 years that assumes someone stuck to their original mortgage terms.

Originally posted by @Kayla Ow:@Larry Fried around $900-$1200, I think I'd like to own more units in class A-B neighborhoods Keep it at $1k or better, and I think that the recommendation of A Step Ahead is a really good one.

So I could ReFi and still have a cash flow of $1,600 not accounting for vacancy, reserves, or routine maintenance.So basically the bank would write me a check for $245,000, I would have all of my original investment back, I would have 30% equity in the property, and the property would still be cash flowing $1,600/mo.I actually have never done a cash out ReFi, as this is my first BRRRR deal.
