Syndications are naturally a higher risk asset class so you should be getting rewarded for taking that risk by getting more return than the stock market.

I let the natural turnover happen and as the new tenants came in then I required deposits from them.

Transferring title to a non-natural entity of any kind (IV Trust, THT, LLC, Corp., etc.) will not increase your opportunities for attractive financing and typically restrict you to the private money market (low LTV, premium rates and higher fees).

If you bought right, you should get natural appreciation to do it for you.

That's just the nature of turnkey properties, whether you buy from these guys or anyone else.Given the current market, it makes sense for these providers to shift towards flipping and more value-add projects, despite the increased risk and operational challenges.

The tenant is not as much focused on rent when they are strong regional to national in nature but the best spot they believe drives the most sales and profit annually.It's the lesser quality smaller tenants that are more sensitive to rents because their model is not often proven with scale or over time as much.So you have to know what you are buying and what to do with it.I buy same stuff for cash but I am the GP on the syndications and my LP's put in minimum 200k per deal as accredited investors.To convert the bank to medical would be very expensive.

the I-75 corridor including Ocala, Brooksville, Spring Hill, Lakeland, The Villages (yes, and everything around them) are all experiencing incredible growth as incoming folks are looking for good priced properties out of harms way for natural disasters. 

Market could be hot one week and cold the next just from the nature of the market which could swing your values a certain amount
