At that time, it went for 70k, now listed for 339k. the town has had some recent growth from medical center growing, and increase in some industry in the area. he told me they expect a food manufacturing plant to be built in the very near future. additionally, the county courthouse is in town.

I am now down about $700...so long story short, make sure to account for maintenance in your expensesSide note: My other tenant calls and wants a refrigerator in her unit, she has been renting from Rent-A-Center the last year or so....don't you just love it!

The article is 100% correct, I've worked at 2 National REIT and the diversification of a REIT can't be compared to the small scale investing we do.A REIT can have Large scale Apartment complexes 500 Units or larger, Large Office buildings or Office parks consisting several office buildings, Hospitals, Land, Industrial Wharehouses, Hotels, Large Shopping centers, and they also have strategic components factored into the REIT to mitigate losses based on changes in market conditions or asset types.I can't begin to count the number of inexperienced flippers that forget to factor in something as simple as taxes on sales when they're doing the numbers to acquire a property causing them to have a loss on a deal.

Our support staff may be shared between different LO's across the country but each LO operates their own shop within the "company," so to speak unless you're talking to the ILA (inside loan agent) division which are call center loan officers (LO's).

The national behemoths are profit centers and couldn't care less about customer service, in my view.Good luck!
