Common syndicator game of throwing out huge returns when other funds are going under because they want you to only look at that shiny number and not what their past performance has been

We can play word games all day.

Quote from @Jacob Sherman: Quote from @Kiran Asknani: Hi  All I am new to STR game and am planning to start with investing in Boston area or nearby suburbs as I have spent last 10 years in Boston.

I am new to the game with 1 property leased to section 8 under my belt and was about to buy another.

I want to have a game plan in action prior to reaching out to lenders. 

Paid a top local esigner to come have a look and all she did was insult our cute little place that was doing just fine.....But I think where a designer could add value is by suggesting unique areas, like game rooms, coffee bars, outdoor BBQ/play areas, and stuff like that. 

Honestly, it seems like you’ve got more skin in the game than I do since I’m just getting started as a bird dog, but I really admire your approach.I think your focus on tax-efficient strategies and building a reliable team is spot on.

We could also play the present value to who game?

I’m an investor and student of the game when it comes to building passive income and a solid portfolio.

Agree 100% especially if they don't have capital and a capital sponsor wants 75% or more - something better than nothing especially when you don't have skin in the game
