Investing in Tulum, Mexico
12 December 2024 | 49 replies
From talking to locals, there's a couple of issues than need to be addressed, some are the non-ecological practices that some of those developers have, unfortunately, our government profits from this investors and allows them to destroy manglers (which are the natural water purifying system of that area) dismantling hectares of mangroves and degraded the habitat of resident and migratory species burying animals alive.There's proof of fecal material floating beneath the city of Tulum, only 20% of the water is sent to the water treatment plant, there's no infrastructure for the exponential growth.The landfills in the middle of the jungle that is leaking hazardous pollutants into the freshwater system and that something that developers won't tell you.I love my country and it would be a disaster for everybody if this place ends up like some other great beaches around the world, that are completely ruined by greedy investors not following the rules.There's no urban or comprehensive master plan, and one of the risks is that Tulum will be like Playa del Carmen is today, overgrown and with environmental devastation.I will advise doing a lot of research before getting something in Tulum, different country, different rules, and practices.

@KJay BratcherMost of the online education and in-class education about the material is mindnumbing and you won't be using 95% of it in your day to day LOL!

If you are buying lower cost SFH's what is your exit?

Alternatively they can purchase a portfolio of occupied homes at a discounted price because the seller of the portfolio in most instances first tried their hand at selling the homes individually to the owner occupant and after experiencing 13-15% in disposition fees and expenses realized its not worth the effort and better to package the assets and sell discounted to another investor.Keep in mind, most of these SFH's are in stagnant markets meaning limited appreciation and if you ever took the time to look at an amortization schedule there's no meaningful principal paydown for many years.

Are the people that give bad feedback on the reviews actually the lazy ones who sort of half commit themselves, put half *** effort in studying the material and submit half cocked deals to Jerrys buying team only to be rejected and when they dont make any money in 30-90 days just get angry and decide they will give a bad testimony on rip off report?

How to analyze NNN properties and determine FMV
30 November 2024 | 11 replies
Marketing material from commercial brokers in all 50 states, for all sorts of NNN, isn't useful, and you aren't going to really get insights until you narrow your focus a bit.Starbuck is a nice easy thing to watch b/c they are all over and, since Americans have largely replaced their trans fat addition (McDonalds, Burger King) with a sugary caffeine addition (Starbucks), it's likely going to do well for a few decades.
