Hi All,When sourcing larger commercial deals, who are the brokers that you connect with most prominently and what markets do they operate in? 

The duty here would be created by virtue of any agreements they entered into, rules posted to follow, or by virtue of instructions given to them to operate the washing machine.

Any insight on this topic will be appreciated.Hi George-My husband is Dominican and we operate a STR in Samana we built from the ground up.  

If an operator had debt locked in, who cares what the value is if you aren't selling.

Our net operating income (NOI) margin is 54%.

The IRS requires the hours to be specifically in real estate trades or businesses, which typically means activities directly related to owning, developing, operating, or managing real estate properties.IRS Publication 925 outlines what counts as real estate trade or business activities, like development, construction, acquisition, management, leasing, and rental operations.

Right now, there is probably very little cash flow, after operating expenses and vacancy.

So, cash management is a function whereby the manager determines the cash not needed for the current operating cycle (week or month, daily in big companies) and puts the cash to work at better interest.

(Mass Govt should be giving experienced landlords (5 years operating with at least one unit at profit as a buy and hold) zero down loans to house these people (in areas they currently live in--so they can stay close to friends and family), and free money to fix up the Brockton type area homes to modern standards inside. 

I would say today 40-50% of your income goes towards normal operating expenses. 50% if you want to include replacement reserves which you should.
