I am in process of creating a first LLC and if one can indeed simply capitalize it with debt and use that debt as a massive income tax shield, I was going to celebrate with a bottle of vino

My tenants introduce me as the best landlord in Sacramento - I'm trying to leverage that title to create a wait list.What are you doing to capitalize on your celebrity?

@J Scott Tomorrow is the 1-yr anniversary of this thread .... perhaps this buy-and-hold thing isn't your best game ;-)Hopefully you have a tenant early in the week.

I don't have to be an attorney or past defendant to know the guy is let his celebrity go to his head as I witnessed (and I'm sure a jury will have an opportunity to do so too) on TV.

Most successful investors understand the importance of visualization and setting definite goals.Let's celebrate successes and have a discussion about long-term goals and what specially REI will help provide for you.I'll start.  

It's volume based, knowing the #'s at very professional level, things like traffic studies matter and most don't even know what that is more or less how to interpret one. 3% vacancy would be a serious problem in MFH if one has that, and 7% a reason to celebrate. 12% a serious concern, and 17% a priority action item.     

If you had a celebration and had one week to plan, would alot of BUSINESS friends come?

We're at Celebrity Resorts near the Parks.

 I always raise  rents on the anniversary or the renewal of their Lease.  

As is customary, I like to keep the members of the community updated on a group of real estate investors that have been meeting regularly in Korea - The Seoul Real Estate Investing Meetup.We've been mentioned a couple of times on the Podcast as well as getting a shout out in @Joshua Dorkin 10 Year Anniversary write up.First, let's all celebrate a pretty remarkable achievement.
