Jason,My PM has the parents co-sign all the time for my student rentals, the kids always supply their own furnishings.

The mid to end of the cycle is usually signaled when the "dumb money" rolls in.

Brett, you are the one that mentioned SFR  cap rates in your first post and even went further to claim a SFR cap rate would signal a sell metric.  

J Beard so with an 8-9 year cycle and the last down spiral starting in 2008, does that signal we are approaching the peak?

The ability to do this easily and securely is also important.Finally, controlling all these two-way systems from anywhere in the world with internet access or a cell phone signal is a given, but control of all from ONE app has been the latest challenge.

Hint: the word "revolutionizing" should signal this strongly-Alignment is terrible-Quality is deterioratingIn any event the post above is pretty spot-on from what I can tell.  

I personally dont like YL for the reasons you mentioned, but pretty much all marketing methods work with enough volume (postcards, YL, flares, smoke signals, etc).It DOES attract sellers, since I know some great investors who ONLY use yellow letters.  

If I own the pharmacy, I have:Rent - a premium, high-rent payer,Credit – tenant has great credit,Building - vertical improvements in the form of the building,Site Improvements - in the form of a parking lot, curbing, storm controls, etc,Zoning – I own real estate zoned for a broad variety of commercial uses, andReal Estate - I have a great piece of underlying ground on the hard corner of a signalized intersection with the highest traffic counts in the area.There is a market for this type of product.

The statement is a bit ambiguous because if you are only referring to a person that has to sign all the deals and be there at close type things, then both the LLC IRA and Solo 401K does not require a custodian to do the deals, both have checkbook control and I can sign for the deals myself in an LLC IRA.

The signal as Phil Pusjeotovsky would say!
