I'm getting a lot of differing opinions from both real estate professionals and regulating bodies. 

Quote from @Chris Seveney: @Bernie BurkeIf you invest in a syndication make sure to get updated reviews - whether here on BP, or in other investment clubs, a lot of the buried bodies are making their way to the surface.  

Check with your state real estate governing body to find out what they require.  

Mainly because I have to pass inspection from the accrediting body prior to staring the business in the front portion of the building approx 3000 sqft.

In my area the appeals are heard in the middle of the year with the result of the appeal coming out in the fall so that the taxing bodies have the information for the following year's taxes. 

@Justin Goodin No body cares enough to come inspect physical copies of your partnership agreements and you know that.

Any body you see buying a lot of flooring material introduce your self in ask if they have a business card.

Compare its 70,000 student body to that of Stetson or Rollins with a few thousand and the needs are far less. 

There's a lot of movement by a handful of Federal regulating bodies that are pushing to provide honesty and transparency up front for consumers.

Hi Alex,Thanks for the mention.Unfortunately, investors sometimes expect providers to subsidize all loss of income incurred on a property which isn't feasible.We do our best to minimize costs and in many instances "eat a cost" that we shouldn't.Can't control "acts of God" or the weather/other people lolAs we all should know, there are ups and down's with real estate investing.Business is easy and people make it difficult as the saying goes.Our PM never just throws "a body" into a property just to call it "tenanted"Why?
