Even if it's just flipping burgers at the local restaurant.Squidward is on the opposite of end of that spectrum.

By now I have encountered a full spectrum of people who showed interest and I believe I have conducted my business very properly based on the education I acquired through reading and practice and lots of from biggerpockets.  

We all know that there are issues within the appraisal industry and many think that something is going to have to loosen up for the industry itself to figure out how to keep up with buyer demand.That is not just my feeling, that is shared by many professionals across all spectrum's of the real estate business and that sentiment is clearly supported by the articles and information anyone can find on the internet.

I've got several in the $15-50k range and the ones on the lower end of the spectrum have produced wonderfully for me.

To put my finger on it, what most investors are probably looking for (and by most, I mean the people in the middle of the spectrum) is something that cashflows pretty well (10%+) but also has upside. 

But  the landscape is turning more LLC friendly in the lending spectrum - particularly in the portfolio lending sector.  

I'm trying to find something like that but in a broader spectrum.

The more it appears that there is reciprocity in the loans, the more you are at risk of violating the rules.On the other end of the spectrum, the advice I was given was that making *secured* loans (secured against real property) back and forth that were based on the price of the property (as opposed to the value of the loans going back and forth) should pose little risk.

There is a tradeoff and there are many cities in the middle of the spectrum as well

Like I said I don't know your market and the prices there but here in Chicago $666k for a commercial multi-family property (5 units+) is on the lower end of the price spectrum depending on where you're looking.So besides house hacking, what could you do?
