As an example, although we are “hard money” lenders we seek lower rate long term financing for our real property investments.  

We are under contract on another right now, but it's an appreciation play.

If we are passive I believe that we could still be limited partners in either an LLC and obviously a PPM.It sounds like you ran the project and were on the opposite side of the transaction.

It would be ideal to get some sort of large study done on this.Furthermore, if you sold in a buyer's market, your thought may be skewed.If your portfolio was in a market that was declining in value.I am not saying that the above situations applied to you but it would be good to get a large study on this.Furthermore, if we are talking about more expensive homes being a better investment?

We are getting ready for a comprehensive lease document update and it's an area I think we might be able to improve in our current documents.Thanks!

We are working on our second team and let's just say this WILL NOT be a long term relationship. 

So to me it just goes with the territory and I guess to your point we are getting what we paid for but it was the Architect that set the 2100.00 fee I just agreed to it.

Tenant move out in the middle of eviction process and we are unable to serve him.Any suggestions on how to proceed with money judgement as we cannot locate him to serve him ?

And I hope to be ready to buy within 9 months (we are moving from LA)  Agents that aren't keeping deals to themselves (or friends) are a rarity.

Batteries wear out, that's just reality, and were talking batteries for a house, yeah, that's $.
