Blackstone Group is the largest private equity company in the world.

Every tenant needs security for their private roomYou may get additional rent but you can also have additional work (dealing with more frequent turnover, common area cleaning/maintenance).

.($40 + $20k = $60k) / $100k ARV = an acquisition at 60% of ARV)Recently, a beginner investor posted a need for 100% financing on a "75% ARV" investment opportunity, usually a viable candidate for private or hard money lending, with anything below 70% being better.

When there's a secure area (like a back yard) I'm all for adding a picnic table and nice outdoor furniture (a guy who owns a coffee shop gave me all his outdoor chairs and tables when he bought new ones and so I reward good tenants with nice backyard outdoor furniture). 

I'm gonna run a private event where we will talk about a few of the most pressing issues and concerns of the attendees.

Think of all the things that could go wrong and see if the lease addresses them: unauthorized pets or tenants, early termination, security deposit, lease violations, late rent, eviction, lawn maintenance, parking, etc.5.

I’m scouring the country looking for a similar case or a legal expert with experience with whether such information is "private" and members who legally obtain it can be forced to keep it secret, or whether a fundamental First Amendment right to free speech might apply, especially where an owner has never signed any confidentiality or non-disclosure agreement before or after buying in.Thanks!

Private lenders would be your best bet...but your play on the rental would be a cash-out re-fi more than likely...I really don't like the concept of assigning debt to your holdings just to buy more properties...your one rental paid off entirely will cash flow more than the next 5 you acquire with debt. 

I like Humboldt Park, Logan, Avondale, and Smith Park for those with a budget of $400 - 500K to secure a 2-4 unit.
