(at least we think so) We call him our "anchor tenant", ie: he was there when we bought the property 6 years ago.

high-5 :)College rentals do require a different level of effort but the demand is anchored by the institution which matriculates a fresh batch of renters for you every year.

Even if it is stabilized, but especially so if there isn't a long-term anchor in place.So, a lender is likely to mitigate its risk by offering a short-term loan with a low(er) LTV not only to hedge against vacancy rates, but declining values as well.

2 rooms of carpet were totally ruined and had to be replaced, there was dirt and cobwebs in all of the bedrooms, windows had been left open and rainwater allowed to come in and stain the walls, hundreds of gouges and anchors left in the walls, oven dirty, floor and wall behind stove and refrigerator had a half inch of dust, dirt and food, etc, etc, etc.So, needless to say, I've had to spend a considerable amount of time and money getting the place back into rentable condition.

Cell phone towers take a lot of space as they need the anchor wires to help support them.

Now you have to do very well to recover...and the muscles you develop from running with anchors on your heels will only serve you to perform GREATLY once the anchors are gone.

From one that speaks to people in foreclosure on regular basis, one repeating emotional trend I see is embarrassment---in general, folks in this position often act too late because they are embarrassed (pride is another good emotional anchor) with admitting failure...Although I don't market to these individuals, I understand the mindset all to well and believe any marketing campaign to these folks should include the following components:- Discretion/Privacy: Give them an opportunity to learn more without revealing themselves initially---offer a white paper or recorded info-message which would allow these distressed homeowners to learn without the need to speak to somebody. - Hope: Too many marketers are appealing to fear---although fear is a compelling emotional trigger, the majority of people don't want to be reminded what they will lose, they want to be reassured that there is a chance for recovery

There are no appliances inside until we get a tenant and the outside AC compressor is being installed (today) with a steel security cage anchored to some concrete piers.

We have some larger tenants as well in our units.They will use the stair rail more of a prop when coming down the stairs and a push off when coming up.Most people do not apply full weight like that on the stairs but use the rail as a guide only with light pressure.What we did for that tenant instead of wall anchors we used 3 inch steel forged screws and drove into the studs.

Has anyone dealt with Anchor Loans in California before?
