By qualifying based on the property’s income potential, these loans open the door for both new and experienced investors to grow their portfolios and build wealth through real estate.

Looks like someone would have to knock on doors until they can get 3 people to vouch that the property has been like that since before the zoning laws were in place (in 1976?)

Hey Nikki, I invest in Detroit (12-doors there) and live in California.

A house has come up for sale next door to one of their existing houses, and due to the convenience that would provide from an operational standpoint, they want to open up shop there.  

Yesterday I went to the home to see the condition, there was no car on the driveway… I opened the main door to peep inside…looks like they still have lot of their stuff inside and I can smell bad odor; I just closed the door and returned back.

I self manage 16 doors right now.

but that's a few years off).and here's the thing - it's totally fine with me if it is a driver of housing prices. 

I’m on my 6th door.

Hi @Guy Idan, like others in this tread said, is important that you "vet" the Syndicator (aka sponsor) - every component of the syndication is important (the property location and the local economic drivers, property class, the loan type, property management company, the sponsor, etc.) but I would say this is more as a bet on the jockey than on the horse.

An agent can not longer open a door to a buyer without risking oppressive fines, being sued, or face a contempt of court charge.
