The plumbing is galvanized and hot water pressure in some units is maybe at best slightly more than a drip.

The town where the house is is NOT a "hot" real estate market.

We are looking at building a model where we refinance to pull cash out and return capital to LPs.

I grabbed my realtor and we raced to go see it as houses were flying off shelves like hot buns.

I don't know the Brazilian market, but I could see this model potentially being applicable in Mexico, Ecuador, Peru, or Kenya, which I do know.

What I'm looking to do is detect water in common areas such as under the hot water tank, sinks, and such locations.

@Avery Carl This point make sense, but it really depends the level and quality of cash flow.For standard LTR cash flow, they are normally not good enough to scale business, so we need to build equity (BRRR) to make ourself scale.The business model for STR might be different, but still, equity is the real wealth.

My capex budget includes roof 25 year life span( flat roof only 15), floors 10 year life span, appliances and hot water heater 12 year life span, hvac 20 year lifespan, bath and kitchen remodel 20 year life span, etc.

I’ve been doing a lot of research on the niche market of manufactured & mobile home investing and I’m interested in hearing about the experience of investors in the DC, Maryland, and Virginia (DMV) area.This metropolitan area is a more expensive and a smaller market compared to hot spots like Texas, Florida, etc.

@Tyler Howie Portland like many markets is very hot right now.
