I really see Columbus Ohio as an extremely safe bet for the next 10-20 years.

Basic recommendations- Deed of Trust-Personal Guarantee-Promissory note-JV agreement (to protect the lender from violating usury laws)-clear late fee schedule, cure period agreement-cross collateral if the subject property doesn't safely cover you with enough equity

I think not.But a golf cart with less safety features, uncapable of traveling speed limits on roads, no doors, children often traveling without car seats or boosters (that people spend hundreds of dollars on to keep their kids safe in the car), kids/teens/drunks driving illegally, etc.It's providing a vehicle for use, even if it is a "golf cart."

The area is also good, safe, and with nice mountain views. 

Locating, marketing and negotiating the deal, understanding the underwriting, using escrow and title, and all of the basics are used so that it prepares for the more complicated techniques.

Rate went back down to 7500 upon completion of the work and 2025 is a safe bet now. 

Wishing you a safe and fruitful remainder of the year.

Obviously, this is a safe estimate to use but the numbers don't really work in today's current market (in South Denver at least).

Likewise, if you are already a big dog with a lot of money, you should invest in low risk, low return areas where your money is safe.  

I could be investing the dollars going into a capital call into something else.Similarly, a preferred equity raise can be the worst case scenario for investors, but it is being billed by some syndicators as a great tool and “safe”.When I see a fund injecting a preferred or “protected” equity raise into a deal to meet DSCR requirements from the senior lender and pretending like this is somehow any different from a foreclosure and total equity wipeout, I’m confused.
