In looking for loans for my first investment I've found a couple subsidies provided by my state to promote developers to build for  longevitey in a more environmentally conscience industry.

I've gotten multiple cards with 0% APR for the first year promotions.  

Personally I believe land trusts are one of the most overused and over promoted tools in real estate investing.There is no statutory basis for the in MD and therefore  may be invalid here.

Because we have an extensive database, and a lot of experience promoting to this class or renter, we typically don't have problems keeping them filled.  

I know the BP cheerleader group will chime in, but giving bad information and promoting illegal activities isn't the best business advice.

If you think training is costly, consider how much more ignorance will cost you.You can find a lot of people that promote themselves on this site.

When you get there just start asking questions about promotions because retail banks always have them especially around this time so they can close loans. 

I would tell you how and why I know this but I recently mentioned my property management experience with vacation rentals in Hawaii and got my post removed for "self-promotion" -- so I won't.  

so moral of the story, don't neglect CapEx (since it affects cash flow), just don't consider it an operating expense...that way it doesn't skew the Cap Rate calcuation.The reason i bring up the BP calculators is that they are promoted so heavily on the site/podcasts/webinars, etc. 

We start with good screening, appropriate rents,activities to promote a sense of community, maintain a very clean interior and exterior.
