And you can also buy them when they're beaten down and underpriced due to market overreactions like currently, due to rapid rise in US 10yr rate.I've read and watched multiple Good Egg offerings and they are typical of many feeder funds and to be fair like many primary GP/syndicators as well for both taking on unnecessary risks and also charging confiscatory fees, as #1 they have no skin in the game and #2 they get a big cut up front whether project fails or not, find GPs that are investing >10-15% of their own cash into every deal.good luck and sorry this happenedlooks like they are a fund of funds setting up crowdfunding to invest in other offerings.

The 3 issues you described are all fairly large red flags, especially for someone's first property.

We had success in summerlin with insurance company paying .. over a 24 month period we had 3 tenants   fair market rent at the time was about 2200 or so non furnished.. we got 4100.00I did not like the turnover so I put it up as furnished rental and got 3500 and its going into its second year with a superb tenant. so seems like a happy medium for us.. 

I know, some will say "we don't do that, we just have it as a service because..." and look if your doing it fair and decent kudos to you for being decent.

Fair PricingThey’re not the cheapest, but they’re honest and transparent about costs.

I noticed that its mostly for fairly large multifamily properties, like 100+ units.All other things being equal, at what property valualtion do you think it starts becoming a more reasonable approach?

The fact you brought this up on this board with this situation tells me that you are fairly new to renting by the room.  

1) 50% rule is a well accepted generic approximation 2) hundreds of underwriting has shown it to be fairly close for my underwriting for a SFR purchase in San Diego.  

You've probably heard of big Landlords losing property, but only because they were flagrantly violating Fair Housing, running a slum, or otherwise violating the law in an egregious manner.

it is a fairly good start.
