Equality and equal rights are entirely artificial concepts with no fact or basis in biology.

CAP rates are a crummy way to value residential real estate and an equally crummy measure of financial performance for all of the reasons mentioned above and more ... you may disagree, but since the only other person out there that regularly disagreed with you on this was kicked off this site for doing so, and just about every other turnkey operator seem to be in the business of perpetuating it as a metric to try to artificially pump up the attractiveness of their offerings and scam newbies, please forgive me if I try to offer some counterbalance and perspective to other new investors who would otherwise not have any other exposure to such radical ideas as using CAP rates the way they were designed to be used by the professionals who use them.

If you're not passionate about law or medicine (a field that will warrant a large annual income) then it doesn't make sense to spend a ton of money on school.

Show me one successful person in business, sports, medicine who starts something expecting to fail.

Hi @Eric DeVitoI've had some people say that you'll go broke, but the trick is to surround yourself with an artificial support network.

The plan is to buy about 2 acres or more of land here in Tennessee or one of the neighboring states and hold on to it until it is legalized, even if it’s for medicinal use only.

To do this we have several regulatory law firms on retainer to help us understand issues and to review educational materials we produce.That stated, it is important to understand that what may work in one state, may not work in another, so what can or cannot be done in Wisconsin is not the same thing as exists in the bordering state of Illinois.Here are some things to consider:Licensed lenders (meaning a state licensed lender with at least one MLO on their payroll) and depository institutions cannot legally partner with an unlicensed entity, but they can enter into a joint venture relationship that has many compliance requirements the lender must do, and compliance requirements the lender must require of the third party.It is a violation of federal law to artificially increase a price in order to hide fees or other requirements under several federal laws. 

Paying it down is artificially increasing your cash flow as you are basically putting a lump sum in and gradually taking it back out.

The only lease I've ever renewed was for a great tenant that needed a physical copy of a valid lease in order to qualify for her medical residency after she finished her doctoral degree in medicine.

For instance, if he was capitalizing POH income or his expenses were artificially low because hes doing all the work and not being paid a salary for it.
