The leasing agent is taking 3 weeks to qualify a candidate - so I’d probably have to wait another month to fill this slot (or change leasing agents).

The minimum you should have in this slot is $150.  

Either way, their story probably will be nothing like what they were told it would be right before they wrote a check and threw last year's salary away.I realize that I can't save these people from themselves or from the circling sharks (gurus) that are so anxious to siphon away their money.

I have found a 16 space RV park with 20 mobile home slots, a live in 3br/2ba home, 10 bedroom hotel w/ laundry facility and last but not least it comes with 20 canoe and kayaks for guest rental.

Total return through principal paydown, tax savings and cash flow were about 182%.My real estate strategy is clear:Acquire real estate properties that cash flow on 10 and 15 yr mortgages (I already have all my 30 yr slots taken)Acquire real estate in good areas (accomplished with this Collierville property)Acquire real estate to save on Federal TaxesUse 30 yr mortgages to support shorter term mortgages with lower cash flowOnce 10 yr mortgages get paid off, start paying off the oldest 15 yr mortgagesKeep acquiring properties to save on taxes as deprecation schedule is being accelerated At some point, with enough paid for homes, start paying myselfThat is why the 182% return is so important.
