The government and IRS got wise to landlords taking these direct payments and not reporting them.

I have heard of a new government office coming in on the east side which should provide good careers in the next 2 or 3 years.

As the recession (real world tactically defined not academia/government strategically defined) continues we will see a larger uptick in the direct bookings.

My recommendation is for your client to figure out where they want to be, then talk with the local government about what options are available.Good luck!

Along with connecting with governing body to confirm zoning and preliminary site plan. 

It's all government money backing the loans anyway. 

You'll have a contract with the government with a generic lease. 

For our clients, we separate repairs into catergories: 1) Health & Saftey - highest priority to avoid lawsuits2) Property Preservation - don't want a $500 water leak repair to become a $5k repair later3) Government Required - for city & S8 inspections4) Marketing Negative Impact - who wants to rent a "purple" house?

The governments will prop it up for maybe as much as a decade but unless there is significant technological change it will be DOA.

Gives credibility when pulling up to a location.
