I've been in due diligence for the better part of a year now and have looked at a ton of businesses and frankly the business is in dire need of a refresh and rebrand.  

In the end I sent out about 400 +/- I did get 3 calls out of that 400, all of them were looking to get retail for a home in dire need of extensive repairs & updating.

I'm sure there are good wholesalers but I wouldn't want to haggle over pennies with someone in a dire situation and take away their home.

These withdrawal limits are triggered in order to prevent the fund from having to make forced sales.However, even with pre-set withdrawal limits from these REIT companies, investors can continue to withdraw their money in the future, which has several negative effects on REITs:1) It prevents REITS from buying properties or continue existing projects (in order to hold-on to cash reserves and pay back investors)  2) If investors continue to withdraw money, this may lead to a downward spiral of selling assets if it can't gain the trust of its investors (i.e. the forced sales of its properties).   2a) As a matter of fact, Blackstone has put up for sale its 49.9% interest in MGM Grand Las Vegas and Mandalay Bay Resort & CasinoGiven the above news and with Zillow, Redfin and Opendoor closing down there iBuying departments, Is this another bellweather for dire commercial and residential economic conditions to come? 

The problem seems to be a marketing issue behalf of the Property Management Companies that you have used, granted this time of the year can be more difficult find a tenant with all the holidays.If the situation is more financially dire, I would consider refinancing.

It's in dire financial condition, but hasn't closed shop yet.

When I lend privately, I use an annual, simple, interest rate (no compounding) to keep everything strait forward and "simple" for both parties.
