Solar is what appraisers call value in use, unless the appraiser is drinking too much kool-aid, or developing an appraisal of cost, not market value.

However I had some drinks with a buddy last night who has had success with a portfolio of SFH’s in Indiana using a turnkey company that he trusts and our conversation got me thinking.

I approach this strategy with a sense of "I need to eat and drink anyway, I enjoy socializing, I might as well go to a place where I can meet a few new people who may or may not turn into leads at the same time.

For myself I don’t drink.

Drinking the Koolaid.

Normally, anything at a bar and for real estate investors is a good networking venue (also drinks can be tax write-offs).

I'm a big fan of Old Fashioned real estate, and Old Fashioneds (the drink), in all seriousness though I think getting ones partner on board is essential to any investment.

@Scott Skinger - I'll also be out in Denver at the Joe Fairless conference, would love to grab a drink or something if you'd like to connect. 

@Charlie Miner if you can qualify for it without your home being fully rented then this probably won't be too much of a problem.  

They could keep it in there and use it for drinks/whatever.
