I normally go with 5, 7, or 10 yr term, depending on rates.

Thank you  @Jamal L. those are very normal terms and requests when negotiating commercial leases that require tenant improvements.

Normally this would be an automatic no, but these particular tenants are by far the best we've ever had and unbelievably clean.

The company I invested in normally has about 8-10 projects going on at once.

Whenever I've done seller-financed deals, I've offered something a little more to the seller such as a higher down payment, higher interest rate, quick close, reduced contingencies etc. to sweeten the deal beyond a normal sale, and I've shown them proof of funds that I can pay off the property in cash, so that helps give them peace of mind that I'm a credit-worthy borrower.

Investing in a REIT is normally pretty straightforward -- although some "REIT" investments are really mutual funds or ETFs that themselves own some REIT shares or track REITs.   

Google street and sat view are only your friends to eliminate property....not to determine what you will buy....I swear up and down to people all the time...go look at what you plan to buy.....don't gamble. 

Normally if a flip fails, you switch to hold and rent.

Under normal circumstances, there is nothing wrong with that….

You can normally manage your own property without a license.
