When I give a star rating to a fast food restaurant, I rate it compared to other fast food restaurants, not compared to fine dining restaurants.

Putting too much emphasis on day 1 cash flow could lead you to leaving a lot of money on the table when moving from one asset to another.  

I tell them I think I'm leaving money on the table and am pricing below their true value. 

I was thinking people will want to move to warm cities in low tax states. the place would also need to have some diversity and fine dining that they're accustomed too. 

We have no substantial capital to bring to the table and are not willing to move in order to house hack since we have 3 kids. 

It sounds like you bring so much to the table already and I wish you the absolute best in your real estate journey!

So you technically could have walked away from the table without closing the deal if this is a deal breaker for you. 

., they were about to go to the table, a soft credit was pulled prior to close, and a mortgage forbearance was listed.I certainly can't speak to if this situation is even plausible...its pure hearsay on my part.

- the circa 1770s house currently has had the floors in dining room carefully removed (to be put back in future) and drywall removed in the dining room.

You don't want any surprises at the closing table that could cause your seller or end buyer to walk at the last minute.3.
