I love em because they work at any point in the market cycle (about to get even better with the market cooling off) and you don't need lending or any capital to do sandwich lease options and if you do get a home at wholesale pricing (70% of value) you can then purchase it with private lending for usually 1% above prime rate to still mortgage it medium term (<5 years) and make a larger profit when it closes.

I'll bet that feels cool to go and visit a property after you've bought it. 

Not cool to lock up a property hoping you find a buyer, wasting the owners time (and money if they have financing on it), and getting their hopes up, just to walk away 30 days later.

Not as cool as I thought it would be. 

Edit: Shoot, can't believe I didn't think to add this as it fits my interests, but I think the Smart Home/Automation trend is really cool and hope to be able to get more involved with that.

But with this type of saturation in high-end units, which I hear is happening in other metropolitan cities, a cool-down is all but inevitable.

Indigo does require a low cost monthly subscription but it is a cool idea. 

Most of these repairs are inconveniences - noises from pipes in the walls, the AC being low on freon and not cooling very well, broken cabinets, etc.

Sounds like a cool idea and great set up for the In between place .

@Aaron NelsonOh cool!
