Initiating a conversation with a seller by presenting an offer under these terms can raise concerns, signaling, "I lack funds and need a favor."

If I can't find reviews, and a lot of them that are in favor of a company, I'm not a player.

Chief among them is the soaring price of property insurance within the New Orleans market and the second obstacle is the city's political environment that does not favor STRs.

Fortune favors the bold.

They show you potential savings - if everything works in your favor.

Whatever is measured is more likely to be changed in favor of what you want it to be.

I beleive this is an important distinction because you appear focused solely on apartment buildings that were acquired because of favorable debt or other bad projections. 

Getting the deal under contract at a favorable price for all parties is the biggest challenge.If you are able to obtain that, the buyer is much easier to find. 

Investing 30% of the equity and presumably guaranteeing the debt is more than you see most GP's contribute and should justify better splits in your favor than instances where you see a 5% or 10% co-investment.

Does this number require you to sell more to achieve a split which is more favorable to you vs them?
