The one good thing about this area, property isn't selling fast and that'll allow time for some detective work.

I will add detectable domes, install ADA striping (how much does paint cost??).

Bad business... that's making emotional decision, not business decisionsAnd NO WAY would I take the word of ANY of these people about what really happened...... and I'm not in the detective business.....

Tenants LOVE cameras, especially the more modern ones with little turn-on/turn-off motion detection spotlights and infrared night-vision capabilities.

I could always do this the "old school way", of playing private detecting...but don't have the time.

This is where your detective skill come to play.

All you can do is set up a camera at the gate that detects motion and watch it.

I have a bit of a security background and the main principle is 4D's Deter, Delay, Detect, Denay access to your assets, I would think the LLC anonymity falls into the Delay category. 

Also, it is VERY hard to get NL without a private detective license or being a member of the BAR.They offer you a free conference call and web overview.

Same thing with sellers who have assumable mortgages at low rates.Some folks have been talking about "subject to" more (where you buy the property with the old mortgage in place and don't tell the bank) but I'm personally very reluctant to go down that road as it's seemed banks have gotten much more sophisticated about detecting changes in ownership, particularly regarding the named insured on the property insurance not matching up with the borrower's name.Like seller financing, "off market" deals are also good in any market phase, and are looking even more attractive in this phase... if you get a realistic seller who's willing to play the "you set the price, I set the terms" game.
