I find this concept extremely fascinating. 

For example the whole concept of hard money lenders- appears to be far more developed in the US. 

Formal dining rooms are becoming less and less common; people tend to prefer the open-air concept of a kitchen that flows into a comfortable eating area.

And lastly, like I mentioned above with regard to the NN, NNN concept, you can pass through so many costs to commercial tenants in addition to their significantly higher ppsf monthly rent (again, usually, most neighborhoods…not all), like cleaning services, landscaping, signage, utilities for common areas, insurance, taxes, even re-facing a parking lot or repairing side walks can often be passed through to the tenant through “CAM” fees.

This concept lends itself to the same idea of imitation.

I'm actually shocked that no one has posted yet regarding this article that came out in the Wall Street Journal today: http://www.wsj.com/articles/as-home-prices-rise-fl...According to the article, We've now reached pre-recession levels of the number of investors who flipped houses (2007 to 2016). 

Basically any idiot could run it and because it is new for the first month or two that owner could generate decent sales with almost any food concept.

I've noticed a lot of upcoming real estate investors have been using LLC's to start off on their real estate investing journal, can someone from their personal experience using an LLC business entity, what are the top benefits of using an LLC when buying properties for real estate investing?

Its called "Self Journal" and its made by a company called Best Self Co.

The website is sweepstrategies.com    I am not recommending them, but it is an interesting concept about mortgage financing in the United States.
