They only like to go deep in bigger amounts with proven performers and more regular prefs and split ratios.  

If you dig in on the south or west side, you should be getting deals that are distressed enough to just use regular hard/bridge/private money that is expensive. 

My regular LOC is charging 7% today without points but it changes daily.

With REPS, if you hit 750 hours and spend more time on real estate than any other job, those paper losses can offset regular income, which could mean huge savings.

The ILA is North America’s largest longshoremen’s union, with roughly 50,000 of its 85,000 members making good on the threat to strike at 14 major ports subject to a just-expired master contract with the United States Maritime Alliance, or USMX, and picketing workers beginning to appear at ports.I have been reading that if the strike drags on, we can expect some shortages on perishable items that the US imports.One of those is bananas; the US imports 100% of its supply.

I get the rent is substandard but it seems if they just hold on for another 7 months they have a vacant property they can sell to all the regular primary home buyers in the market and get a much better selling price.

Conduct regular inspections?

And with lehigh there are still 100k or more vacant lots so you have a classic supply demand.Lastly  ATL  land deals.. this one still bugs the crap out of me..

They'd be a partner and help provide solutions to operational challenges when scaling, we'd bring tech in like Breezeway for scheduling, give them a company card with spend limits to buy supplies, they even ended up landing a deal with a local laundromat to wash and fold there after-hours to make their lives and ours easier.Truly a win-win. 

Yes if you mean support yourself after you finish your regular job effectively using rent as a pension.
