Theyve outsourced management to PM companies, and their property values are rising now quicker than they would have before.So good cause evictions, rent control, things of that nature hurt small landlords substantially more.

This is a Maryland Historical Property, zoned for residential high density, with specific limitations on its usage due to its zoning.The property is massive, offering 8,276 square ft of space, including 5,445 square ft of finished area, and it features a substantial driveway.

I need to confirm with the lender but assume any such "partial" payments would have to be substantial and equal to at least 10-20% or more of the total loan?

This structure is not cheap to setup initially, and the annual admin costs are substantial, however gives peace of mind that it offers the ultimate liability protection and most efficient tax structure. 

I think the thing that might dissuade me from such a deal is if you needed to put a substantial amount of money down as again, financing is tough with leaseholds from my understanding.

Among other things, these provisions prohibit the DST from doing things like making substantial capital improvements, refinancing, raising additional capital, and other things that are typical in real estate operations.This limits what DSTs can invest in and dictates how they must be structured.

In my experience these are the levels of how financial fraud is doneLevel 1 - The “sponsor” is a fraudster from the beginning and the entire investment is a designed fraud designed to steal the investor's money Level 2 - The sponsor initially intends to operate legally and honestly but the temptation of easy access to money, usually fueled by addictions to drugs, sex, partying, etc. leads to the bad decision to line the sponsors own pocketsLevel 3 - The sponsor intends to operate legally but a crisis in their life resulting in a need for money leads the sponsor to “borrow” from investor’s funds with the full intention of paying it back ( which they are unable to do).Level 4 - The sponsor intends to operate legally but the assets under their management incur substantial loses; the sponsor attempts to cover up these loses by “temporarily” borrowing from one investor to pay another or submitting false results.

Please keep in mind that I'm looking to make a substantial cash on cash return when going into REI.
