My question is how much cash would you be comfortable building with to cover any unforeseen circumstances and in an uncertain time? 

Might be possible depending on the circumstances.2.

Obviously circumstances has changed, cash flow is difficult, but Boise is a more of an equity play right now. 

If the property is subject to Los Angeles Rent Control, you can't do STR under any circumstances. 2.

Is it a good idea to evict this tenant when these are my circumstances? 

This threshold will vary by investor and circumstances, but it’s a threshold everyone should define and prepare for.

THE QUESTION: Under what circumstances would the personal guarantee be acted on by the lender, and how would that look for each individual if, say, there were 5 partners and each had 20% ownership?

But back to your point I can totally understand why some people feel like they'd be encroached on under these circumstances.

Specifically, I'm looking to attract investors and wonder if the mentioned 10% return should be considered a good deal in most circumstances?

Watch American Greed episode on Remington financial and indgrid Robinson. different circumstances but kind of same fact pattern..
