Other than that, if you buy smart and give yourself plenty of cushion to cover for the unexpected, the process should recycle. 

@Shawn Peden  The originally invested money 134k + 6k  get recycle to the next investment.  

My attention was diverted from these lots, but I'm ready to explore options, again. 

Even done to a home NOT in one of those statuses, by getting it at discount then recycling it to the original homeowner, is called FRAUD.

So he sold to Waste management got the huge check.. then buys it back 8 years later and now owns it and bought the one up in Chico and recycling etc etc.. he is a garbage King.

I also plan to divert some of the cash flow to reits.

If you really are getting $325k homes for $200k, you can recycle the same down payment funds over and over. 

I will do due diligence on the company as well as what sorts of spaces I am competing with out ther ein the market. but given a 10 or 15 year lease that tenant is not going to move to a different spot because it's cheaper because they ar ebound by the lease.In thi sparticular situation i'm looking at a newer contruction bank building with a 10 year lease and an industrial property that just had a 10 yea rlease signed with a large national recycling firm.Don - if they do bankrupt the court CAN invalidat ethe lease but what about lease payment form prior months that are woed.

For the record, I was able to get the city to agree to provide commercial cart service - 3 cans, no recycling, no big trash service. 

It will just take a bit longer compared to recycling the cash into more properties.
