If you have hardly any money in it and your other cash and assets are not at risk then you simply can walk away.Not talking ethics and all of that just simply from a legal perspective.Even though you get into properties with nominal down if something goes wrong and you have that guarantee or your other assets or cash at risk then that is just as bad as putting a bunch of money down.So if you go on the line for anything you need to make sure it is a very solid deal so you feel comfortable backing it up.

Almost all newer areas (the '90 and up you're speaking of) in Raleigh are in an HOA, even if it's just a nominal amount per year for road maintenance, no pool or clubhouse.

Zillow charges a nominal fee, but it's the cost of advertising.

Prices might not fall in nominal terms due to inflation. 

Offer $450K minus the reasonable repair costs and keep my business' rent at a nominal rent for a comparable rental so I don't paint myself into a corner or wait for the next opportunitySo that gets me to my highest bid price of $380K regardless of what he is willing to carry. what do you think? 

If there’s an apocalyptic crash then all bets are off but if you have factor in some nominal hiccups do you: 1.) make less money, 2.) break even, or 3.) lose some/all of your principal?

At least for a nominal amount of time.

It's nominal at that point, but one more penny on the pile type thing.

If it is common to not have off-street parking, than you can probably charge extra for the parking space.One thing I would do is number the spots and nominally assign one to each unit.  

., Yes I am assuming they are better compared to others but I can't say for sure since I haven't worked with others but from @Marcello Oliveri's comments it looks like Voepel could be at least in the Oscar nomination.
