I move just about every year in college and I could pack most of my stuff in short time and dump the furniture and be gone in a matter of a couple of hours.There are units in the SAME building for $1250...... very easy to move and save $150/month...assuming the units are near identical.

Are you currently with Velocity facing an adjustment or just looking for a second quote to beat it. 

Note: If you determine there are in fact vacancies, I would fill-in the vacancy with rent identical to the others so I can see what the numbers look like fully occupied.

Are there lenders who work with self Employed that could adjust my income by adding back my travel?

By adjusting the P&I to 30 years, which makes the P&I $232.67 (instead of $290.51) and you cash flow would be $208.66 with a Cash On Cash of 17.12% (instead of 12.37%).

If you are outpacing inflation than "rock on", if not, overtime the cashflow goes down from a real dollars (adjusted for inflation) perspective.

As simple as it looks most investors do not understand what the lenders consider what the value is and how adjustments are made.

Based on 12 showings in a month our data would tell you to adjust the price 4% to 8%.

Today, with Airbnb, there are more opportunities to rent these properties easily in the off market season, as long as you adjust your pricing.For disposition of these properties, often they sell well when the economy is doing well. 

I am very surprised at how quickly rents have accelerated, and some owners haven’t adjusted to the market (myself included on some units).
