Make sure that you invest with someone that is syndicating on a deal specific, not a pool.

If you are struggling with any of those subjects definitely give me a shout as to my interests in those fields have pooled me a lot of knowledge.

I second @Ronald Rohde, its a difficult question to answer without knowing your specific goals (for yourself and the property), risk tolerance and local RE market etc.Are you trying to decide between opening up your own business in the second unit or is your list of business the potential tenant pool? 

The yard has a fence and the deck to the pool has a fence.  

If they do sell they are going to want to sell in large pools (think $10 mil +) and not one-off notes.

There are no pools in the surrounding area, so that idea is out. 

@Sunny ShakhawalaI have not attended Tony Robbins seminar, but listened to Zig Ziglar tapes.

I will have a much smaller pool of buyers if they have to pay cash.

Should you want pool, pump, well, solar panels covered there is a premium on top.

Remember swapping cylinders takes maybe two minutes (worse case after you get used to it).We have a pool of tenant keys that get swapped between our units.
