I was in a room full of agents (probably 30) yesterday and only 2 others knew what the approximate market rent for an updated 2/1 in SE Portland should be.

I think if you bring a deal to the table though, you should be rewarded per se if you only have 5% of the funds, I would assume there should be a bump to at least 10% of the profits.

My two cents:  1)  @Tim Swierczek is correct on Minnesota landlord law, landlords are not required to pay a specific utility per se. 

High Cash Value Life Insurance is not an investment, per se, in itself, but a way to put money in a bank account with amazing yield.

In many cases they stick to certain geographical areas (to provide their se).

It generally takes time to process collateral, meet state requirements, address securitization matters in replacing any loan and redemption periods.As Jon mentioned, you can't value a property based on a loan amount per se, but you can in some cases come close to what money a lender may have in the property.

That should put you in the 35% tax bracket not to mention the SE taxes.

@Joshua DorkinIt may be time for a "down east" (meaning south eastern NC) or maybe "SE NC" or "coastal NC" subgroup for NC.

You mention it was in SE between Nationals Stadium and the new soccer stadium, but that description would put it in SW I think.

Don't forget to set up key words that will help you se blogs discussions, where you can ask questions and get answers, good luck
