If you are switching tenant types what kind of Tenant Improvement costs are you looking at to get it ready for them?

The rule of thumb for asbestos is don't touch it.... meaning you don't have to abate it if you don't disturb it.

But many Solo 401k clients are starting by setting up a brand new self-directed account from scratch because IRS rules allow large contributions (up to $60,000 per year per participant) into the Solo 401k plan which give them very good start.With small amount of funds you will have very limited investment options.

You don't want to do that wrong as the SEC has very specific rules about who can invest and the paperwork required. 

One rule of thumb that I have learned from hanging around a very experienced lender is that portfolio loans are typically not the right product unless you are getting more than 10 properties.  

Some houses just don't fit into any formal rules we have at the moment.

Is there a particular rule of thumb in how much to drop a price?
