Investors harp on numbers and create rules, etc. etc....you see huge forums and social platforms like BP, but they are all based on the wrong thing.

They seem to forget what the rules are and when rent is due (even though they have a written lease agreement to refer to).

See my blog on The Tenant PhaseTo be a successful landlord, and maintain that excitement that you had when you first began, before you knew the ropes, you have to have all this in place, and you MUST AT ALL TIMES STICK TO THE RULES OF YOUR CONTRACT, YOUR LEASE AGREEMENT.

As you can see, in our market appreciation on detached and attached seems to be more in sync... in fact we've seen more appreciation in attached properties lately in Fort Collins, CO.Similar numbers for another city near us, Loveland, CO:And finally, here's Greeley, CO:It may not matter with what you're trying to do, but perhaps, someone with actual data in your market can verify that assumption before you invest based on that premise.I'd also be curious if our market is the exception to that rule or if our market is normal in this regard.

Rule #1: Money has no emotions, neither should investors.

The process, lenders, “rules”, etc. there are different.

There are some asset-based lenders that do not keep this rule, but they have lower LTV ratios and require a greater percent down.Hope this helps.

The rule is also by number of loans not Doors.

Know the rules for the exemption you intend to use for your syndication - without a game plan, you may inadvertently disqualify certain investors from the offering. 

If you can follow Warren Buffets #1 rule in investing, then feel free to invest that $15k.
