A $1.8M valuation looked solid—until we saw the seller was charging their business just $1,000/month for a property worth $4,500/month in rent.

⚠️ That $3,500/month gap = $42K/year = ~$250K in overstated value

We adjusted the rent. Value dropped. The loan structure changed—and the deal stayed alive.

📌 Always ask: Is the rent realistic post-sale?
