I know from previous posts some people had suggested getting one from a used appliance store but the PM had recommended against that as reliability might be harder to predict. 

I was thinking it would be best to show at random times throughout the day and switch it up every day so I am not predictable.

I had the opportunity to talk about our strategy in podcast 103.While it has had moments and certainly is NOT how we ever predicted our path to "weave" we have been more successful than I ever imagined.

Actually a lot easier than flipping and easier to predict returns and easier starting from the ground up.

Hey everybody, I have a question about the prediction of Illinois property tax . 

Now if nothing happens in your area, then there was no need to diversify, but I can't predict the future.

These pros do serious market research to predict the future, so if they're still planning to build more, that's a clear signal to me that they don't see an end in sight.I don't see an end in sight, either: Barring an SHTF-type occurrence, it's going to take a national economic downturn to pull back the reins on this fast growth and, even then, the tech sectors will be among the last to cut back.

Using that metric I can predict with relative accuracy my CAP, COC and cash flow.

Obviously there is more to maintain (three roofs instead of one, more exterior and interior wall surfaces for painting, cleaning, more soffit vents, more piping, more of something to go wrong), and also the maintenance is non-standard, as each cottage has it's own unique plumbing, electrical, AC, ducting, sewers, water supplies...versus in a standard 4-plex all the units have "similar" layout and the issues are more predictable and less challenging.These cottages are not on a very large lot that can be subdivided in the future.Would you ever consider buying multiple stand alone structures like this if there is no price advantage versus a 4-plex on a per door basis?
