Certainly would be worth doing if your ownership includes all the equipment that's inside a Jiffy Lube.My understanding is that amortization periods for NNN properties may be limited to the remaining lease term.

Anyone know of a great marketing site for contractors and/or a place to find discounted equipment and materials?

I am a silent partner in an outdoor equipment manufacturer.

I grew up there as a child before moving to Canton.120,000 should get you a decent starter home in Woodstock.You can find one that used to be in the 180k to 200k range at the peak back in 2008 for 120k now.When looking if you are not happy at 120,000 in what you find bump up to 140,000 or so and you can negotiate down to your 120 range.You don't need to pay off your credit card balances just get them below 33% of available credit limit and it will boost your score.I know doctors that open up practices and have to pay off very expensive equipment over time but didn't know the schooling was so expensive.

A 2-story requires heavier equipment than a single story, which usually doubles the cost.

This is after maxing out sec. 179 and bonus depreciation.New equipment 8.25% sales tax, 1% heavy use tax. 2% excessive diesel use tax.My equipment fleet worth 2.5mm taxed at 3% year.Heavy use tax on each truck $4,000.00Property taxes 3% and on and onI constantly read this forum and many others to learn as I only have a 10th grade education.

After all your thoughts and suggestions, I feel a lot more comfortable and equipped with knowledge about section 8 tenants.

Don't go put your money in a restaurant chains, but in a grocery store partnership for example ( :) ) In recessionary times, restaurants can get killed.Speaking of dying, phamaceuticals are also a good recession proof ploy, not in just medicines but also in medical equipment and assessories.

However, Lexis also makes it easier to access UCC filings (public notices of liens granted to secure equipment financing and the like) - which may be of no help in learning information about LLCs involved with real estate.

There are some challenges and some unique opportunities that traveling and being in the military offer, and as long as you are prepared and equipped to deal with them you can be very successful in this business.
