Misdirected concern: This rare scenario is being overemphasized, likely to maintain the status quo of seller-set commissions.2.

So, they got taken advantage of.4) They didn't do enough research on comparable properties before doing repairs - so went either overboard or slumlord, instead of properly Maintaining to the Neighborhood.The other challenge we encounter often is investors expecting perfection.

What about if you set up a maintenance company that maintains all of the properties, then you have a real estate attorney prepare all of the lease agreements.

If they are VERY professional, they will have their processes in writing as verification that policies are enforced equally and fairly by their entire staff.6.

However, as these terms are not used "scientifically" in the Solo 401k industry, it's advisable not to focus on those terms; rather, develop a sense of what's required to maintain a Solo 401k plan and identify exactly what is offered by a service provider.The upshot of all this is that once you've adopted a Solo 401k plan, it doesn't suddenly vanish or become non-compliant because a "plan provider" or "plan administrator" resigns.

I’ve reviewed a number of theses DST’s across numerous asset classes  and there performance /returns are generally fairly low and unimpressive. 

@Harish Verma You make a fair point about interest rates of late for comparing one investment against another based on the sellers’ stated cap rates.

Since they are responsible for maintaining the relationship with you after the transaction closes, this approach adds an extra layer of confidence and security to your investment.If you can't find an investor agent that you like or trust that is also a Property Manager or works under a brokerage that has a Property Management Division, I would ask the agent if they recommend a Property Management Company.

It earns a great rate of return compared to a bank account and is fairly liquid.
