If the answer is "yes", ask them how they allocate acquisitions between the fund and individual mandates.

I would seek out a 4plex and allocate units as follows to achieve diversification 1.

Or, something to give you guidance on how much you should allocate to each asset class?

I don't see how they can justify allocating relatively no value to these assets in effort to try to avoid income taxes... 

That is exactly what I thought and was super confused as to why people thought with the same amount of extra money allocated to paying off the balance, it would be faster/cheaper with a HELOC.  

Most of our other HAs allocated two people per bedroom, no matter the sex, age, or relationionship.  

I suggest allocating %s and putting certain percentage to work.  

Even if those allocations are not exactly accurate for the property, you're still looking at very minimal cashflow.

I'm thinking that the $2,000 allocated to online marketing would be better spent marketing for cash investors to sell properties to than for sellers.
