Requirements and caveats: FHA requires 90 seasoning of money so we wouldn’t be able to flip to FHA buyers for 90 days (Largest percentage of buyers).

The percentages say if you are new that you will never do a deal and just waste their time.

Plus they take a good percentage of BPO/Appraisal.

But I am weeding out a larger percentage than I used to.

Sub-meters are available(Daniel Jerman Co.) for about $50 each and hold tenant accountable for actual water usage and not a percentage.

I like Jesse's answer as it gives just a percentage and not a figure, which leads to interpretation.

That percentage seems similar to what you mentioned.Since the lenders are starting to discount more heavily and more frequently now than what I had seen previously, that percentage may start to rise.

I have not used it from these companies online that you see offering you to use their money for a high percentage and processing fee.One of my mentors trust me enough to use his cash and the way he has his POF letter states that it is a cash funding and the funds are available.

The big investment banks have now offshored a lot of this to India because the wage differential is MUCH higher (even in percentage terms) for these jobs.

A very high percentage of the time, they are not motivated to sell and just want to see your best offer.
