During this time, you would want to investigate alternative investment strategies to get better ROI than just letting your cash sit, this might help you get to the down payment much faster, but again I would use this strategy if you know you will never move again.Its ok if you loose money each month on the property aslong as you are either looking to stay for a long time or it is less than the cost of renting a place, usually as a general rule, you shouldn't do this, but SJ is just a different market, but you need to do your research to the total cost of owning a rental property.

We did investigate selling 3 of our Self Storage locations, potential price target was not what I wanted. 

He told me that he will take note, but he could not submit a ticket for investigation on my behalf.

So, if there are hundreds of people, nine in Burlingame where I live, that have listings on AirBnB, and that, to my knowledge, I am the only one that has been investigated and fined, it seems clear that the 'rules' or 'laws' are not clear at all."

So before I investigated further, I though I'd ask BP... 

@@George Taylor and @Travis Sperr  I think I am going to call them and investigate however id be very reluctant giving these people my social and DOB. 

In IL we follow the EPA guidelines, but...any child having lead poisoning is and will be under investigation for child abuse.

And, if they have money, you may need a forensic accountant investigating for your attorney, this is another skill set and few attorneys take the time trying to follow the money or looking for sham transactions passing strings of entities between the same partners, there could be a pattern of operations that you'd need to look for.

You know, I'm amazed really, you can't write a book about how to put insurance together or split options of stock or give advice without the proper license in insurance or securities, especially illegal advice.Such books that are written on insurance plans and securities are written, but the author is certainly vetted by credentials at least by those who buy them and they are by respected publishers like P-H or Black's or even Barron's.If they can pass stuff like the SAFE Act, limiting trade in property right's I'm not seeing why RE Commissions can't crack down on giving RE investment advice, I'm not talking about REI clubs or forums where we chat, but in mass distribution of investment strategies.These gurus are nothing less than a danger to the public economic welfare.What is just as bad, is that people are so desperate that they do absolutely no investigation of RE gurus and take, hook line and sinker, whatever drools from the pages or mouths of these con artists.

I would contact the law enforcement agency that is investigating this incident and request to speak with the detective assigned to the case.
