My go/no-go was break even (net 0 cash flow) under the following assumptions: 50% occupied at market rent (based on comparable properties) including 15% of gross rents to maintenance/cap-ex (at 100% occupancy) and utility costs.

Some gurus have one side of the business with employees that find properties for them, called “acquisition specialists”.

We are not hourly workers , but business owners , our employees are hourly workers .

Are you US military, US civil service, government employee, does your work pay for housing?

Either as a contractor or employee.

Do these plans have a minimum # employees requirement? 

California charges a minimum tax of $800 a year per LLC, and more if you have gross receipts in excess of $250k.

Here are my questions I would ask since there are very few reviews on BP:Are the returns NET or GROSS?  

Oh plus this month we will close on a 6 unit, fully renovated, all in 250k, 33k NET and going higher, with gross of 48k, Should I listed to these guys and not buy? 

A year or two of my life in a home is long enough to warrant slightly lower gross income for the sake of my sanity.
