Good luck with that one—I doubt any syndicators would find a sympathetic jury in such a case.Scott, you and I have debated the concept of “skin in the game” for years.

But I believe that if you're not violating any terms, not in a restricted industry or involved with anything deemed risky by Stripe then you're probably safe.It appears their move to Stripe is for accelerated payment processing, which is interesting since they acquired eRentPayment and Payment Report.On surface level it might be they're adding Stripe as an option on top of their existing infrastructure.

Quote from @Robert Cucino: Quote from @Tanner Lewis: Those look like pretty solid returns on the surface level, if you decide to go with DSCR, you can qualify the deal with AirDNA projected income even if it is rural. yeah i talked to dcsr lender in area, they do 80 LTV.

I have bought off market deals direct from owners, from wholesalers as both a dual closing and contract assignment, and of course listed deals.From the surface, this sounds a tiny bit shady, but not over the top.  

When you are willing to cover your mouth with a handkerchief and step over land mines to see if the layout works for a LTR you know you're a real estate investor 😁 lolI've seen it all and smelt it all.Just haven't found a dead person yet in a property heheFunny thing is, having travelled a lotSome cultures consider animalistic smells attractive.Even aphrodisiacs.Personally, I love me some niche perfumes and have always bought the heavy Middle Eastern Oud scents.Repulsive when first applied but give it a few minutes and it blends into the skin making it sweet, sour and woody lolMaybe cat piss after some time smelling it would also blend in with our olfactory senses like it does with the other cultures hehehehe 🙈   

But lately have had a hard time finding anything to BRRR or even with enough skin to flip.

Affordability is about 1:3So yeah on the surface it looks like a big difference, but there's a lot of things not controlled for in the stats- There were a crazy amount of houses built in the years just after the war, so housing stock was easy to come by everywhere;- Homes had nowhere near the kind of features they have now - 2 car garages, dishwashers, OTC microwaves, W/D hookups, high efficiency windows, central heat & air conditioning, etc - all those doodads and niceties drive up the cost of housing;- Fewer mortgages were 30 year, so homeowners had to pay (relatively) higher monthly payments;- Rentals were almost exclusively apartments, so there was more supply for buyers;ETCI think these things tend to be more stories that make for good press but aren't really that grounded in reality overall.

When they call lvp waterproof they mean that the surface of each plank is waterproof.

Personally, I'd be nervous to not get some type of deposit from my guest because I like for them to have "skin in the game" 

At this point, we are three years in, and have learned that you sometimes have to have thick skin (grit) in dealing with tenants, managers, and RV site visitors; while maintaining a sense of humor and humility.
