We're updating our business model and looking for more automation and I don't particularly want to go down the Podio rabbit hole if automation is out of the question.

Depreciation in real estate requires a little more sophisticated modeling, but it still works.

There are 2 buildings, the first in Fort Wayne, near airport houses 1 tenant ZF, a german auto-parts supplier, been in the space x 22 yrs and only has 2-3 years left on lease but space is custom for them and they have long contracts from automakers for parts for legislatively mandated discontinued car parts, when car models get shut down, the manufacturers have to continue to supply parts for 10-15 years by law, and ZF gets many of these contracts, also all work force very established there so company less likely to move, but even if they do, Heritage could carve up the 1, 100k space into 4 smaller spaces and then get 50% more rent.

Validate your  1acre model as far as units and NRSF. 

One of the reasons you want to work with an agent is that the sales reps that sit in the model homes work for the builder, meaning they have allegiance to them.

Base model with a v6 and extended cab. 200K and still going strong.My wife drives a 2005 Suburban.

Could not see much because the basement is literally filled to the ceiling with model trains, VHS tapes and thousands of baseball cards. 

In my most recent deal with a partner, I bought the land (10k), he pays all costs, I build it, he's building it cash, I put my fee into the deal and that was given dollar for dollar value. it's all based on dollars. so 10k, 25k GC fee on this 720 sq ft affordable house we are doing, plus my realtor fee so my basis is 41k and his is the cash to build which is probably 80k. so I get equity of my percentage contribution. shouldn't be too tough and that's super fair in my opinion. we build at cost when we use a retainer based model and I'm not extending any credit to the borrower. 

What’s your recommendation for a dishwasher brand/model that’s likely to last but not super expensive?
