I make sure that they help in creating new systems and processes, always asking for their advice.  

Cashflow, ability to build a team, landlord tenant laws, price to rent ratio etc.......were all factors in the decision making process almost a decade ago.Now,  I wonder why your approach is an either or view? 

You would have to go after the one individual for non-payment and you could only remove the other three by going through the legal process like you would for someone on a verbal agreement, which puts you in a he-said, she-said situation. 

I just recently started a jiu jitsu academy with a couple of friends, and although I was not in the day to day grind of the process in finding a building and building the space out, I did become fascinated with the process.

The reason you see a person’s name and all their entities listed in a lawsuit is because Plaintiff (the suing party) attorneys have to list everyone and every entity that can be remotely tied to a cause of action, otherwise, if enough time passes and through the legal process discover that a separate entity or just a person was truly liable and they didn’t name them in the lawsuit, they are out of luck.

I think smaller markets say sub 50k population would have a larger impact from one big move from a manufacturing facility or something like a Amazon processing center.

I have been learning how the process works and there are a lot of resources for how to interview a sponsor and review the deal, but how do you initially access the deals to review?
