I have learned that, while showing tenants the respect they deserve, you must be firm and command respect as well.

So if you managed to create a "system" outside of the ones the rest of us are ruled by, one in which you found some "soldiers" that you are able to be general of and command, bully for you.  

However, from my limited command of tax strategy, accounting, and business planning, it feels, so far, like you get what you pay for. 

But there are those hot pockets in the city that are commanding rates like that.

They are cheap, and will get cheaper in coming recession, as tourism to Vegas will decline, and they have superior growth and great management, that know what they are actually doingADC -(Agree Realty), they do what I do privately, but on a bigger scale, run by Joey Agree , very smart, they have excellent growth, multi-tenant, triple net retail, and grocery anchored Retail, they will benefit from massive secular tailwinds, as there has been under construction in retail for years, due to fear of E-commerce, higher construction costs/insurance costs, post GFC under financing-construction, etc, so existing inventory is commanding higher rents, we are bumping new leases by 7-11%, they will get this endogenous earnings growth for yearsthese should perform well over next 10 years, never buy anything in Real Estate for less than 10 years, to allow to go through cycles, and if you can buy in 401k/IRA so dividends can be re-invested tax freegood luck, you have to monitor your E-REITS like you would any other stock, closely, as they move with sentiment not just on NAV like private Real estate, so you can't just dose em w 200mg of propofol and walk away, not that you'd ever do that :)good luck

And people who check all 3 boxes that I mentioned are very rare, so they command and are worth a premium. 

Command of the English language was "off". 

Did 10 years commissioned service as a Space Officer / Satellite Vehicle Operator, Air Education Training Command Space 100 Instructor, and Lastly 3 years as a Politico/Military Affairs Officer (and project manager) in Europe. 

Talk to those turnkey companies about the market and you'll not only learn valuable information about the market, you'll quickly get a sense for which turnkey companies have a real command of the market and which ones are simply trying to make a quick buck.
