Contrast that with Fund Managers who put a huge portion of their own money in their funds and operate several assets with low debt and have a real operation going for several years where investors can cash out and/or add money into the fund at anytime and you will see why safety and liquidity are way more important than trying to get 30% when the market goes up and lose it all when the market goes down plus you are stuck as per their offering memorandum for 5 years on average!

At the end of the day, in my experience, here are a handful of things that aren't terribly expensive and can really help when multiple ones are done together:- Nice laminate floors throughout (or, if you have hardwood and can get the cost in the same range, refinishing those,)- Fresh paint throughout with nice earthy/neutral tones and contrast - I hate obvious paint patching, it makes a property feel like such a cheap rental, as opposed to a classy little place to live. - When you paint, have the painter also scrape the ceilings if you have popcorn/acoustic ceilings.- Brushed nickel fixtures (or something similar) - light fixtures, faucets, etc.- Brushed nickel knobs/handles (or something similar.)- If you have a couple bucks left in the budget, get new (and when I say new, I mean on sale/refurbished/wholesale) stainless steel appliances.

Hello All,So I have been talking with Ali on a followup to this meeting and she has convinced me to take the lead on the next one.Since the last meeting was about out-of-state investing, I thought it would be good to go with a contrasting topic, which is local buy-and-hold investing.
