Usually this small portion of the portfolio will comprise of a combination of an international fund (sometimes a specific region or country), commodities fund, real estate fund, and/or small/mid cap funds.

I received notice that I’d be moving back to an International project shortly (score) and with no tools left at the house, I actively began seeking out contractors to just get the house finished and done.

My idea would be to always be looking internally.

This can include credit score, nationwide criminal background check, sex-offender list check, international criminal check, and eviction history (so any public records or information that might be connected to legal court proceedings would be pulled back as well).

It was more of an internal barometer that I use but if it is the only issue I would consider the applicant.

I have MTRs in Raleigh and I get a lot of graduate-level interns or grad students doing work-study programs from out-of-state.

I had two valuations on my last HELOC: one was internal, which gave us additional value for the improvements we made, while the other one they called a “desktop” valuation.

I have a little camp stove (Whisperlite International if you want to google it) that runs off of multiple types of fuel, but it was really a "toy" that I bought when I was younger and was working at an EMS store.

We utilize our own internal funds, and we have other sources we can reach out to.

Initially the PM would manage our own portfolio, with room to expand internally and to other companies.
