I just arrived in the city last week, and I'm looking to meet other investors, rehabbers, wholesalers, realtors, and anyone else who's interested in real estate in the Tampa area.

We have also encountered lenders who would count the debt of a commercial mortgage against us when applying for residential financing, but not allow a percentage of rents from that commercial property to be included in income.Once you arrive in the region of 10 mortgages, they all have ridiculous capital reserve requirements:  CIBC wanted us to have $1-million in liquid assets when looking for a mortgage of ~$100K (at the time of purchase).The Big-5's internal guidelines fluctuate over time to fit their portfolio composition requirements - sometimes they are hungry/open to place mortgages on rental properties, sometimes they are reluctant - which is why you need to keep a rapport with several of them ... or use a mortgage broker.

Anything else I should be looking for or using to arrive at a good price?

I am working on a wholesale deal and need some guidance at arriving at ARV.

When I first started, it took me a while for each house, but I'm typically able to arrive at an accurate ARV within a minute now.  

If you list here how you arrived at ~$200/m cash flow, we might be able to point out some under-calculated and/or omitted expenses - or, show that you might even get BETTER cash flow?...

Hi everyone,  I just arrived to Okinawa around three weeks ago and looking for other like minded individuals in Okinawa that would like to talk real estate.
