We do provide a ton of stuff. 40+ spices, extra easy to make shelf stable food, tissues, paper towels, soaps etc.

It’s a risk you are taking and many will tell you they “never actually heard of anyone”…but if the interest rates keep raising (and the bank could redeploy the money from a loan with 3% into a loan with 6%) and your loan is further in the amortization cycle (basically the bank already collected the bulk of interest, cause that comprises most of the payment in the first years)…would the banks change their stance?

I could see that being an issue, especially in shared bathrooms. the same person always buying the soap and stuff. lol its the small things in life, right.

I grew up working for my family’s business which comprised of roughly 50 rental units in the greater Los angles area that my grandfather started in the early 90s that my dad took over when my grandpa was ready to retire. 

That's my soap box today!!

I will never step down from my soap box and preaching that turn key rentals are only good for the person selling them.

*stepping down from soap box*) The rents are currently under market and the building's performance in very poor.

Both structures own income producing real estate, and comprises the vast majority of their holdings - what am I missing?

Larry as I have mentioned on BP over the years these courses have their start in MLM how many folks have you know to have a closet full of soap.. or trying to sell phone service ACN  five links  wicker baskets  cosmetics vitamins etc etc.. its all the same pitch why we want to do this and all these pull or tug at the exact same heart strings IE  better life  more time with the kiddos etc etc. learning how to flip and or syndicate or buy and hold is vastly different than the wholesaler courses ( which is nothing more than selling real estate just like a broker would do).

I have TONS of food, water, funds, metals, SOAPS, cooking apparatus, etc.
