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.

So you need Plan A, B, C, D, et cetera.You try to think of odd things that could happen outside of your risk reduction strategies.

I have been married for 32 years and if my wife (a very frugal person) had not been saving money from her work (she is a computer programmer) for about 25 years we would be in high water when I had a brain anuerism a little over 6 years ago and I have been unable to work the whole time and I still cannot walk yet.We have a daughter who is 20 years old and going to the University of Arkansas and it costs $6,000 a semester just for intuition and she (my wife) does pay all of expenses at school and does that without going into any debt.  

I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions/recommendations in regards to a hard money lender in Arkansas.

I'm more concerned that UM just cancelled their game vs Arkansas St.    

I found a home that is near 17th street but I haven’t found much about the different areas and I called a property manager but they weren’t much helpWest 17 or East 17th, East means it is in Arkansas West means Texas.

I would also consider AR if it is near the University.

I have heard of the 2% rule but in my area of Northwest Arkansas, while I'm sure there are those deals for a buy and rent, I have not been able to find any.

The only reason I considered selling is because I need to purchase a home near Little Rock AR area....I've looked at a few already and I just figured that with my income (65k-ish base+ nice quarterly bonuses) wont allow me to have this home in Jonesboro and a main residence a few hours away.
