When the colleges contract, all those ancillary jobs will go with it and some of the smaller liberal arts colleges might go belly-up altogether.

hello Shivam, like you I am new to the community but had some deals under my belly.

To juice occupancy for selling purposes, were concessions made in tenant screening criteria, or "1st month free" or "free cable and internet" or "$200 deposit" ?

would love to join.in meantime, would love to bounce a potential deal off the group:- off market improved lot-12.5 acres-Canby Rd, Leesburg-$335kI've spoken to few builders, and with material prices where they are, not a ton of juice.

There are some things that can be tested without juice running through - but an electrician would have the right tools and be able at least get an idea of the diagnosis.If you're not able to test the electrical then you might want to plan for the worst-case scenario in your budget (the place burning down the instant you get the power on), and hope for only the 2nd worst case scenario (100% update of service and wiring).It could also be something incredibly simple to deal with - like a main breaker that is bad.

Now I don't see or hear from this guys because they really never knew the basics of real estate investing so when things went belly up in the market they had no idea what to do so they moved on to the next "hustle".

@Matt Bell I am in the Montgomery area and would love to pick your brain sometime. 

It sounds like there's a chance this group may not be doing it in the most compliant manner, which does happen and can really hit the investors hard when projects go belly-up.

I have seen people do 10 or more deals before going belly up.

@Daniel Torres owning 5% of a watermelon will produce more juice than owning 100% of a grape.
