There is a major franchise that puts these together, writes their own lease (sale-leaseback deal) and surprise - Gives themselves rent holidays in later years in the lease.4) Realize there the return they give you is NOT guaranteed, so better history of the syndicator better the odds you'll get it.5) If you have the money, try to diversify and spread it around by prop type and location (ie make 10 buys of $100K vs. one buy of $1M)6) It's commercial RE - You CANNOT turn around and sell it if you need the money now. 

I'm finishing up the last of my engagement letters for next year and I know many of us will have sporadic availability for tax planning after this week due to the holidays. 

I think it’s just a seasonal/holiday slump but it’s a good time to be a buyer!

Not quite all of them because I found that if there's a holiday sale on Wayfair or other sites, that discount is better than through Minoan.

There are 2 general meetings each month (except December, because of the holidays).

Closed mid-December and was able to get two bookings for the holidays.

During that time it was not uncommon to miss holidays, b day parties, work 14 hour days 7 days   a week.

Hope everyone is having a great holiday season.

I am not sure I have seen any lenders ever offer any type of holiday incentive.

Thank you in advance and happy holidays to everyone.Denise Hi Denise!
