This approach ensures that we have the ability to appropriately maintain a community, ensuring its long-term viability.

I haven't heard of the ability to add additional $250k primaries, but I'll have to dig in to try to learn more about that!  

The ability to borrow the right kind of money at the right time.

If you cash flow $1K per month for 36 months, and then sell with the ability to pull back your original investment, would you consider that a win?

Those are some keys I think to my own ability to thrive. 

But the risk to the seller on this deal is immense you have a guy tying up a property who has no ability to close it and then sell it to whoever will give him money and that person could be nefarious get into title rip rents could give 2 craps about the sellers credit etc etc..

@Christopher Smith there are many...but in my opinion really only three companies out there that offer the ability to 721 into a large and diversified REIT that i'd feel comfortable with. 

I have the ability to put 25% down or more to increase cash flow.

I feel this gives me the flexibility to find the right solution for my client and not just sell what my bank offers.I'll also throw in my 2 cents on common differences I've seen in my career:CDFIs - Because of their subsidized financing structure, they have the ability to be a low cost lender (and sometimes provide grants).

As a Ny'er I wanted the ability to buy off market, cash, close quickly, renovate and rent.
