That one is a big deal for rebuilding.I've also heard of property tax reductions for properties significantly damaged during the storm.Depending on the property and what you want to do, the hurricanes affected property tax, insurance, and permitting in a lot of ways.

For instance, in my private lending, I dont really give a numerical credit score much weight, but I absolutely look at the composition and history of the individual tradelines on a report if the borrower is a smaller outfit, such as a single member LLC or similar solopreneur-type operator.

Build cost low.  

Some items might hold more weight than others, but you guys should sort through that together.You also might just do the partnership deal by deal - sometimes jumping into a partnership before you have officially worked together is NOT the best idea...

And maybe diversify a little, invest half in a low cost S&P500 fund like VOO and the split the rest across 2 or 3 syndications.

I've calculated the lump sum costs to be $9,500 for buy and sell combined and a monthly reduction in cashflow of $347 due to the new loan and taxes.

But if those payments feel like dead weight, Dave Ramsey’s “debt-free” mindset could be worth revisiting.Here’s a quick story to illustrate.

Ask for its breed, weight, and name, and have them attach a picture.- Make the application part of the lease, with the stipulation that if they've lied in the application or in the lease, they can be evicted.- Tell them they have to provide documentation of the animals service / emotional support (as allowed by your local ordinances), and that they have to provide documentation that the animal is current with its inoculations, etc. as well as its local license before you'll permit the animal in the unit.- Tell them they'll have to provide you with a copy of their renter's insurance naming you as additional named insured, with a minimum of (I use $300,000) liability insurance, also before they move into the unit.It's not perfect, but it's a start toward a tenant transparency.

@MIchael McCUe   I get it, it feels like an incredible weight that you could easily lift with bankruptcy.

The owner occupant rate is super low compared to many states but as a rental it goes up alot.
