Some comments on this are harsh, but frankly they are very true.

It varies a lot depending on install method, regional area, heck even a specific properties weather exposure. 

@Harsh Poshti  You do need to check with the local zoning office. 

I do not mean to sound harsh, as RE has changed my life and I fully believe in it.

Regardless, even in the worst case scenario I still think real estate could weather the storm better than a lot of other assets (market dependant).

Quote from @Paul Merriwether: @Jay Hinrichs Predatory is pretty harsh.

Quote from @Bradley Buxton: @Matt J.SD has some great weather and opportunity. 

Your feedback is incredibly valuable to us, and we understand that such adjustments can be unsettling.The reason for our decision was this: Due to economic conditions our investments suspended and/or delayed distributions, and out of an abundance of caution we chose to act expeditiously and with conviction to convert everyone so that the temporary storm can be weathered and everyone comes out the other side.I understand that this might not be immediately apparent, but we decided to implement these changes after careful consideration and analysis to ensure the long-term stability and sustainability of our business, which we believe will ultimately benefit all our investors.We fully recognize that you might have additional questions, and we are more than willing to address them in the coming weeks.Thank you for your understanding and continued support.

I believe it would have been up another .5%, but we canceled guests across all properties three times last winter when the weather predicted 4 to 7 inches of snow.

Additionally, you may be asked to show some availability of liquid cash/assets to weather a storm in case something unplanned happens.
