Is my perception correct that me being listed as the managing partner leaves me with total liability and him with zero?

Commercial = less leads + more "sophisticated" buyers and sellers + numbers are bigger + longer to analyze so people move slower + inspections cost more = slower decisions and less closings per year. 3. 

Right on, I use census too,  perhaps Moodys Analytics is more sophisticated when looking at population and economics combined (risk management).thanks,Matt

Hey, it's all in the perception.

Matters of conflict that reach courts may be viewed in light of the sophistication of the parties, their experience and knowledge.

Might be better to get a little more sophisticated with your model, to ferret deals that may not hit the 2% rule but are actually better.Would you rather a $30k place that rented for $600 per month, or a $150k place that rents for $2300?  

Should be able to see through that kitchen wall out the back door onto the deck or garden area, that should give the perception of opening the room outside.

A bunch of smaller investors that are not sophisticated could be a nightmare to deal with.

I did the online demo, and it seemed more sophisticated than many of the others I stumbled upon.

I think it is fair to say that the 50% rule is a much better guideline than 45% because (a) it is easier to use in mental calculations, (b) it is more conservative and (c) it seems to have worked for so many successful BP investors.I consider myself fairly financially sophisticated but I would not second-guess the numbers that numerous investors have claimed from real experience managing MFDs because I do not have real-world experience managing a portfolio of apartment complexes.
