Nice to have the brokerage community chim in as well.I think on BP you have 3 distinct camps.. 1 a huge body of folks that have never done anything in RE and are wanting to do so, so they are trying to get educated on line here.Then you have the local investor, who 90% of the time probably does not buy from turn key but I know instances in all markets were locals will buy turn key..

@Bill GulleyWhat regulatory agency has jurisdiction for registering HML that you refer to? 

It may sound strange, but some of us have a higher ratio of success with tenants because of our ability to ask probing questions, or even questions that are geared towards certain types of answers and body responses to those ?'

The only way to fight it is to take care of your body, exercise, etc. - so you can get the most out of the time you have on your hands.  

You can capture it if you want to move but not if you want to sell and buy the home down the street.My biggest buy was at $2MM, still had the 6% for the seller to split on both agents in the sales agreement, I haven't done a $5MM deal yet ;-)  Oh, I'm not OCD over everything, just this one that has a million of my dollars, year of my life, 40 pounds of my body, and enough blood to donate several pints to the Red Cross (Bonfils for you locals). 

No body held a gun to your head when you bought this property.

Mostly because it's literally the polar opposite from anything I've ever done (or my body has ever done).

I try to tell as many people I can about how great this site is.The more we spread the word the more it grows with people connections and bodies of knowledge.

To obtain proper assurances that the property is fully compliant with applicable laws, codes, and regulations, including zoning and subdivision ordinances, contact the local governing bodies with jurisdiction over the property.
