We are stuck because my husband makes just enough to live, we've cut every possible expense and really want to acquire rentals but can't find the capital.

Or maybe rates stay high and he starts feeling the squeeze with his investors if/when he has to refi at 6% or sell at a price I would have paid today.Back to Bjorn's point, keep reviewing and underwriting deals.  

I wanted to provide some feedback to the developersRequested features:- Save basic values from last calculation or default presents: interest rates, loan term, variable expenses, etc.- Small notes section to elaborate on property calculations, such as noting the calculation was based on a loan assumption or short term real estate strategy - Ability to edit name of calculation to something other than the address.

So a million paid and 700k due no other loans on the property and it's a commercial building in Orange County CA.

It's the same work to do a $55K loan as a $500K loan so the fees will be higher due to the loan amount but will still be much lower than what a lender or broker gets paid on a higher loan amount.

Taking away the garage from the existing tenants will lower the rents on those units.Currently they are:4 bed 2 bath rent = $2,000 3 bed 1.5 bath rent = $1,600I think the 4 bed 2 bath is the one with the partial conversion, and three units might look like:3 bed 1.5 bath = Rent $1,500 (no garage)1 bed 1 bath = Rent $1,1003 bed 1.5 bath with garage = $1,600Don’t be misled by the 6.6 cap rate in the listing, they are just using gross rents which is incorrect. 30% (25% expenses and 5% vacancy is standard in our market), and this is really a 4.7% cap rate.

This is a long term and expensive strategy, so maybe try the others first.It's like farming.

I track everything in an excell spreadsheet that I modified from a template i found online (also free) stessa.com is free app for tracking expenses that links directly to your bank account.As I scale I plan to move into a software but as of now I am fine with what I have and as you can tell I like free.  

Upon winning the bid 10% needs to be paid in cash or bank check, when would the balance be due?

He is bringing in the property plus $25,000 cash ($20,000 to cover closing costs and $5,000 for initial operating expenses), while I'll contribute a $130,000 cash downpayment and handle day-to-day management due to my proximity to the property.
