Quote from @Michael Ancona: Research all the it's and out's of DSTs before purchase Yes and I highlight the potential risks here. https://www.biggerpockets.com/member-blogs/7993/73161-what-a...In my firm, we underwrite the Sponsor as a company in addition to their individual offerings.

The downfalls are that customization can be limited depending on the company and also you will need very clear access to the site to deliver the pieces of the home and drop them into place. 

I don't think you need to be capable of setting up and customizing an entire accounting system to be a real estate investor. ...Go with something that's already configured out of the box for real estate investors (buildium, stessa, Digb) & get a CPA to help you with taxes.  

This is almost like saying you open a restaurant and need to make separate bank accounts for payroll, utilities, customers, taxes, insurance, repairs, supplies, food, etc....Learn to do some bookkeeping and it will make your life, and your accountant's/cpa's life much easier. 

And just like any other business you have customers: your tenants!

More than 15 years of experience in an international customer service environment.My goal is to constantly improve my skills and knowledge of the real estate industry, particularly in sales, where extensive experience and expertise can be utilised.

After rebuilding my own home after Hurricane Sandy using a modular company, I realized how (with luck and due diligence) cost affective, convenient, and custom these homes can be. 

When you do, their name appears in your post highlighted in blue and biggerpockets sends an email to us and we can know you are talking at us.Secondly, in my post I was warning you that folks would criticize you for your low returns not suggesting you change course. 

If you're in a lower class area, a brand new custom kitchen isn't necessary and you won't likely get a good return on your investment.

Good question - we did purchase with the LLC as the actual customer but definitely had to personally guarantee the loan.
