Any future prediction you guys might be aware of?

I only ask because in general, a regular rental is going to be much easier and more 'predictable' venture from a real estate investing perspective.  

Good stories.Some states are cracking down, I predict they all will as they catch up with trends.As mentioned, most use a purchase contract, without the intent or ability to buy, mislead the seller, find another buyer and assign the contract for a fee, the buyer then buys from the seller, if the wholesaler finds a buyer.

What are some of your predictions for the note industry as we begin 2016?

Whether that asset is worth more than you've pumped into it, even after collecting rent, is hard to predict.

Michael Johnson,I would consider more investment and cash flow predictability as one reason to commitment to another year lease.Secondly, it provides the tenant with a more predictable home expectation.

I predict you would have to waive that fee, or lose tenants over it.  

I don't think they are bad companies but since the investment didn't turn out anywhere close to the original predictions it makes me wonder if it is better to get out at (almost) any cost rather than hang in for another 10 years.Thank you!  

Since vacancies, late payers, vandalism and crime all come up at predictable intervals but not necessarily hyper specific locations (i.e., we know to expect Arson and Drive By Shootings in a certain area, but cannot predict 123 Main St vs 125 Main St), buying a multi-family (especially as many as 18 units) puts all of your eggs in one basket.

It seems to me as an investor your income is a little more predictable, specifically with rental incomes.
