💹*Reminder- The Pearl Development is predicted to create over 11,000 jobs in Mecklenburg County within the next 10 years & will be both a medical education institution and an international headquarters. 

What changes did others incorporate into their leases that were influenced by this years tenant interactions? 

I do see many investors incorporating a similar strategy with new construction builds, heavy rehabs, or in instances where the property was bought far below market value (usually a wholesale type transaction).

It’s not for the casual, would-be investor.However, your BEST investment is always in your own education.

EDUCATE YOURSELF - yes, it will take time, but will lead to a selection that better meets your expectations & avoids potentially costly surprises!

After two years your only profit will be the education you gained. 

Would love to see an example of some real life qualifying activities and what you're including.Please keep in mind that research and education hours do not count by themselves! 

Looking for some input...I'm working on educating myself more when it comes to various tax benefits and trying to decide what would be the best route for me moving forward.

@John Lasher I considered it education, like a certification or minor degree.

My piece of advice would be to try to take advantage of as much free education as possible with podcasts, forums like these, YouTube, and other real estate investors.
