I enjoy college football, video games, and lifting weights. 

A lot of investors put a lot of weight into their LLC but to be frank, it doesn't really matter until after you've gotten under contract.3.

For instance, in my private lending, I dont really give a numerical credit score much weight, but I absolutely look at the composition and history of the individual tradelines on a report if the borrower is a smaller outfit, such as a single member LLC or similar solopreneur-type operator.

Ask for its breed, weight, and name, and have them attach a picture.- Make the application part of the lease, with the stipulation that if they've lied in the application or in the lease, they can be evicted.- Tell them they have to provide documentation of the animals service / emotional support (as allowed by your local ordinances), and that they have to provide documentation that the animal is current with its inoculations, etc. as well as its local license before you'll permit the animal in the unit.- Tell them they'll have to provide you with a copy of their renter's insurance naming you as additional named insured, with a minimum of (I use $300,000) liability insurance, also before they move into the unit.It's not perfect, but it's a start toward a tenant transparency.

Some items might hold more weight than others, but you guys should sort through that together.You also might just do the partnership deal by deal - sometimes jumping into a partnership before you have officially worked together is NOT the best idea...

There would potentially be some weight issues with the 2nd+ floors of some shopping malls, depending on what the potential tenant wants to store in the upstairs unit. 

@Eric Andersen definitely put weight into what @Michael Baum wrote and do your own research on the city regulation/zoning.

I have a wife and 3 kids and the weight of their futures on my back.

So you have to weight risk to reward.. and sometimes we have to eat one that we bought it happens..

@MIchael McCUe   I get it, it feels like an incredible weight that you could easily lift with bankruptcy.
