I'm assuming one of my assumptions is incorrect.

(my post is based off the assumption of you knowing how to analyze a deal to see if it's a good one or not) The first move is to determine if you want to be hands on and actively managing a deal and the day to day of it or do you want to passively invest in someone else's bigger deal? 

Is there existing financing on the property and the lawyer is setting up level 2 deeds to secure assumption etc?

I'd encourage you to do some analysis on your area don't just make the assumption the market is good because of the college although that is a good indicator.

Buyer will most likely email TDS to inspector asking, hey, anything here we have to be concerned about, inspector will respond with his opinion.Dude, your underlying assumption is that buyer, buyer's agent, buyer's attorney, buyer's inspector are all idoits...could happen but unlikely.Whatever your issue is may not be as big as you think...face it head on.

I was under the assumption that I will find deals with them once they are ready (obviously, that isn't moving fast enough), but I agree with you that I should just find the deals myself and draw out a plan and show them how their money would sit here in the US. 

Is this accurate or am I out of line with this assumption? 

than you hear them say that about Stockton, so that lines up with the above decade and a half income trend data.The assumption of course being that inflation adjusted upward income trends are the only places that inflation adjusted rent increases and real estate appreciation can come from. 

While there is no statutory holding period , there is an underlying assumption that you did not purchase the property primarily for resale. 

Awesome, that was my assumption, but I just wanted to verify.
