I guess I am thinking of cost per year of service as my primary metric.Without knowing anything, the EverSeal product looked like it might be cheap to install as it looks like just spreading a thick liquid across the roof.

----@Donna Brake It's not enough to know the date when the tenant is going to pay.

Real estate i know is all about location/location/loacation .

Can someone recommend a trusted expeditor in Brooklyn (Kings County) who knows how to navigate the system and help me clear the violations.2.

Let me know how I can help!

I've included an example below to help illustrate this.So different lenders have different rates (which do vary even for DSCR loans) but these are factors they all consider.See example below:DSCR < 1Principal + Interest = $1,700Taxes = $350, Insurance = $100, Association Dues = $50Total PITIA = $2200Rent = $2000DSCR = Rent/PITIA = 2000/2200 = 0.91Since the DSCR is 0.91, we know the expenses are greater than the income of the property.DSCR >1Principal + Interest = $1,500Taxes = $250, Insurance = $100, Association Dues = $25Total PITIA = $1875 Rent = $2300DSCR = Rent/PITIA = 2300/1875 = 1.23If a purchase, you also generally need reserves / savings to show you have 3-6 month payments of PITIA (principal / interest (mortgage payment), property taxes and insurance and HOA (if applicable).

Does anyone know of a bank or an investor-friendly lender who will approve a loan with commute to New York? 

Again, I would love to connect with some individuals who have experienced this process before or know a lot about it. 

From my own experience, I know that letting personal biases or bad feelings about the seller or property affect my decision-making can cause me to miss out on chances.My first mistake was being too set in my ways and not being able to think outside the box.

Take this 💥just-closed renovated property for example💥:With my query of "22757 Charlemont Pl, Woodland Hills, CA 91364 5/4/2400-3050,0.6,300" we get an ARV Estimate that is ~4% off, and I picked this at random just scrolling through recently closed in my areaAnd the Market Stats $/sf of renovated property in that Zip Code matches up pretty well, so I know the ARV estimate is realistic:You can also run Agent Stats to find/get in touch with the real top-agents in that area so you can triple-verify everything and/or list it with them when you are done.With the above, I am able to quickly vet every new deal that comes my way and spend more time on the good ones.
