(If it's Self Storage - PM me or check out some of my other posts on Bigger Pockets for some more insight.)Think of the latter (passive investing) as being a private lender, Equity Investor, accredited investor or something of the sorts that gives you opportunity into a multitude of investment opportunities. 

A multitude of variables.  

Looking back there are a multitude of ways that I could have financed and already completed the renovations, but I’ve obviously had to learn the hard way.

What alerted me to the fact that he could be dealing with real mental issues was not just using the wrong contract for our first deal and making a multitude of errors on it (which I, the rookie discovered and alerted him to), but when he wanted to go through it line by line, he'd have me read it to him while he fixed the error, and every line he'd be yelling to either read him the whole line, or just tell him the item.

The most visited city is probably Scottsdale, with a multitude of major yearly attractions all across town (Spring training, Phoenix open, Barrett Jackson, to name a few)Downtown Tempe is another good market, with a steady traveler pool because of Arizona State University (parents, students, relatives, visiting professors).

Along with another big point is PM the lower value asset class's are High touch and PM is critical and as most PM companies grow they soon learn that these types of properties are not profitable for them to manage because of the extra work involved so I see the better PM's moving up in asset class's and leaving these types of homes behind...Its not that you can't get lucky and I am sure locals in Memphis think this is nuts but they also source there deals so what they get for 50k may not be what someone from CA can get the same home for in the same condition.My real experience came when I learned  as a lender in possession of a multitude of Memphis properties ...

Everything also goes through title companies where an underwriter, almost always a real estate attorney, reviews the transaction.You, the reader, can believe who you want: someone who spouts off when he has zero knowledge regarding any of this legal review by a multitude of attorneys, who has no specific knowledge of exact details or state law and is not even based in the state; or you can hire your own attorney, find your own RMLO and consult those that have used their own attorney's and experts and research what can be done.It costs me nothing either way.
