Most people on BP don't like to talk about the losses they took attempting some of these strategies. 

Very curious to know how real estate listings are going for other BPers. I'm working towards listing a house in Georgia for retail sale in the coming weeks and am not sure what to expect. Trying to get 3D home tours s...

My question is should I attempt to get a HELOC just to have some extra cash laying around just in case after the pandemic is over and some good deals come along ??

We are attempting to create a slightly above average rental as compared to the surrounding rentals and apartments.

@Niyi Odumosu I got 3 with one bank (fourth attempt was the one that got scrapped because of the $5,000 paper trail issue), then the one I purchased cash and refinanced with a HELOC, and then 3 more conventional with a different bank. 20% down with the first bank, 25% down with the second in order to get the lowest fixed rate.

Anything I should attempt to do about all the cracks in the sidewalk?

Hey Group,I'm attempting to close on a property in Baltimore City, but the sellers have not yet made a few repairs that were agreed to in the inspection notice.

This was after several attempts to raise money first and then go shopping, and I think it's a much easier approach.

I will definitely attempt to do cash for keys before going down the eviction road and add that to my costs.

You can hope occupancy stays at 100%, but should plan for at least 10% total vacancies (with short term closer to 20% as @Greg Dickerson and I are doing).The other thing you will need to confirm is does 100% vacancy mean there’s a body in 100% of all units (physical vacancy) or you are collecting 100% of expected rents for 100% of the units.
