I have been told that LLC will not have much benefits as I was thinking it would.

Everyone always tries to minimize their cost of money; no argument -- but there is also value in speed, reliability, and a high LTV.For experienced investors, you should be able to get those benefits without having to pay higher HML rates...In my experience, private lenders are much faster, more reliable and offer higher LTV than HML -- PLUS you get lower rates.

I have been offering the lease option if they meet this criteria but they usually aren't interested in that either even after explaining the benefits (I guess my sample size is too small).

As licensed contractor you have an big benefit you can stay away from overpriced expenses for the rehab.

Seems many think we will be trading troy's again...LOLMy notes are pretty safe, I have held my breath over the past five years but no problems, knock on wood, but in a really bad recession defaults would/could go up.Bars/lounge are pretty safe if they are not highly leveraged and have low overhead, I'm pretty safe with particapations and the fringe benefits aren't bad.

It's kind of ironic that it's mostly the big players that benefit from the stock market -- CEOS, hedge fund operators ...but it is an investment that is marketed to the average employee/investor.

Having them so close does have its benefits.

My advice to someone considering a coach would be for them to explain in the most specific terms on how their service benefits them compared to their alternatives.

I am sure you know the benefits of the rentals come tax time.

The risk versus benefit is too great!
