The properties on Bluff Road (The Retreat, University Oaks, etc) are probably going to be in trouble once more properties are built closer to Five Points and campus.Agree/disagree @Andrew R.

I know he is your brother, but that's a quick way for a bad Thanksgiving dinner when you disagree about something and don't have an operating agreement to help you resolve the issue.

But if you hire a property manager with a good track record, and then you want to micro-manage, I disagree with your metaphor.

Good points above, but my main point is the same as Mike: there are great tenants that pay market rent.You should raise rent on a great tenant the same way you would with a decent tenant or a bad tenant: quickly and professionally.Kevin is a smart guy, but I'm afraid I have to disagree with his incremental rent increases.

@Mohammed RahmanI respectfully disagree.

As always, your tax professional should help you navigate these rules and apply them to your specific circumstances as with all tax law, there are caveats and nuances to everything which need to be examined!

Additionally, I disagree.

These comments are from about two years ago… Although I disagree with a transaction fee as a real estate agent, if the buyer or seller does not pay this fee, it will come out of my commission… So it’s not negotiable for myself… the current fee in the area is now $595 and all the brokers have them … 

Again, others might feel differently here.3) property level due diligence: (takes seconds to weeks per deal): here is where I drill in with the low-level details.a) pro forma popping: I examine all the assumptions, and see if they are overoptimistic or not.

Quality > quantity in my eyes, some may disagree with that and that is ok.
