Black Diamond meets on the 3rd Tuesday, our next one in February is 2/19 and the topic is wholesaling. 

I replaced them all bypassing those in difficult tight areas & just cut out the old black pipe I could get to.

You can have all the granite tiles (mostly veined black & gold)  I trash out of 20 year old Vegas homes.

Locally, reach out to @Marina Draper, she specializes in Real Estate Investors, and you can also meet her at our Black Diamond events coming up shortly.  

Finally, since beta and Monte Carlo derive a lot of their parameters from historical data, how have you over come the black swan problem in your modeling? 

Service/ESA is a good example of that as it’s a federal law that no one can override, however if someone has a class exemption written into the federal law, then the state could apply their own rules to that said class.I was just thinking about owner occ 4 plex here in Vegas you could put your units up for rent and specify show girls or guys only LOL 

Its just another big black box which you plug numbers in and 'answers' comes out via some magic.

What are the typical vacancy rates in the area - I realize the answer to this is going to be very geography specific, but how do you even go about determining vacancy rates;Is non-payment of rent (uncollected rent) an issue and what are investors accounting for;What are the typical eviction timeframes one should expect in Indy or in St Louis; Although $600/mo in rent satisfies the 1% rule assuming a $60K purchase price, can an investor in fact accrue maintenance funds (while operating in the black) quickly enough to satisfy maintenance needs as they arise (i.e. a 10% maintenance accrual on a $600/mo rent is only $60/mo or $720/yr.

@Vinny Joseph - Bridgeport is ok if you stick to the North End, Forest Glen and Black Rock Neighborhoods.

That record goes to Harrisburgh where it disappears into a black hole somewhere.
