The other careers (not jobs) I/we helped create by giving people opportunities to find their true calling. 7.

Does the remainder of the strategy still hold true?

This is true!

All of the things I have been lead to believe so far have not been true.

Remember a true STR under the tax rules isn’t considered a real property trade or business.

Assuming what they told me about their credit scores is true, would you rent to them?

However- a GOOD agent's true value is in creating leverage for you.

It is very , very hard to find out who the true owner of a land trust is.

true cash flow is only going to come either (1) after many years of ownership, when the property is stable and rents have gone up; or (2) with a completely different, probably tougher strategy or niche.think about a down payment, closing costs, light repairs, rent ready costs, commission to the property management company, then you fix a dishwasher, then in year 2 the furnace goes.

You are not crazy :) cap rates on storage got pretty crazy in the last decade as the space has become crowded and money was cheap, starting to see some reversal of that now, but its tough to find deals at a true 10 cap (10 x NOI or NOI / .10).
