If I could ask another question:-Which aspect of landlording or dealing with tenants is the most distasteful, and why?

It's a great primer on several aspects of funding big deals.

Go to a REIA meeting and learn what others do, ask them about all aspects of their business (what they do, what their vendors do, what their investors do, etc.)

Drills down to identify client needs/wants2. honest comm about if they are realistic in this market3. responsive4. well rounded in all aspects of RE, Mortg, ins, RE, Const, title, etc..5.

The tenant has been there for quite a few years and has broken so many aspects of their lease I lost count.

This was primarily done so I could have more control over my own career/earnings, but I retained every aspect of the company (including it's 4 employees) and re-branded with a new name and mission as she was a great appraiser but not much of a businesswoman.I didn't have the liquid assets to buy the business outright, and it was a bit wonky in the math anyway since I was a top producer, my gross earnings couldn't really be factored in to the totals as I would have made that anywhere.

You have to check every aspect of their business just like you check every aspect of a tenant application.You can start by going to www.narpm.org and search their directory of managers.

Traditional, flipping a home in Historic Preservation Zones (HPZ), can come with great difficulty as these neighborhoods come with an extra set up rules and regulations to ensure that the “historical aspects” are well persevered.

I placed that aspect on the partner.How did you add value to the deal?

If you want to go the route of showing them the aspect of being an investment for you, I would not show them your actual numbers unless they are razor thin on your profit to begin with.
