Much rather deal with 5 homeowners than inspectors, engineers, ordinances the seller's attorney.SFDs are marketable as your depreciation results in less tax benefits in about 7/8/9 years, you can spin them off easily and reinvest at a new basis, still using equity if you want to.

It spins off a dividend and may or may not appreciate.With leverage, you have someone else pay for all of your expenses and your leverage.Let's imagine you have $100,000.If you buy a $100,000 property with 75% leverage that gives $100 in cashflow, that same property will give you $480 in cashflow if you buy it with cash.So with $100,000 you can buy 1 property that will give you $480 cash flow per month and 30 years from now you hold $100,000 in real estate (I'm ignoring appreciation).But if you leverage at 75%, you can buy 4 $100,000 properties that will give you $400 in cash flow per month and 30 years from now you hold $400,000 in real estate.That's the choice.

There are easily another 10 KPIs you could track based on these, and a few other ways to spin the non-closed appointments into other revenue methods (like listings, etc). 

LOL John Gotti and Bernie Madoff are spinning in their graves.

Now you've got my head spinning with ideas for something like that too.

These are commonly called split or mixed use properties.The IRS gives you the option to spin off a portion of the single structure you live in as a place of business. 

Oh great, we get to spin the "home inspector roulette wheel" some inspectors are GREAT, some others, well not so much and can jeopardize a sale for reasons that are dubious at best!

Rogan PodcastIn AZ they just shut down spring training, this alone would be enough to spin certain cities into recession.

(I’m also an agent so I always ask well if you’re not looking to sell are you looking to expand your portfolio or some spin off of that)I’ll update after I speak to 100 ppl with your pitch
