@Simen Gundersen and @John Powell The hard part is comparing apples to apples.

Came across info about a company called Zumper that has rental listings and something called "Instant Apply", plus they have released a report on market rents for some neighborhoods. http://techcrunch.com/2015/03/26/zumpers-new-app-l...Anybody heard of them, make use of them, have thoughts or comments, etc.?

So it's not accurate to say that this is always a difference. 3rd, there seems to be a bit of a misunderstanding with several people about what crowdfunding really is, and so they are comparing apples and oranges.

We have made it blend in with the surrounding farmland by modeling it to look like a barn, it is being located behind a treeline on the least productive part of the farmland it sits on.

He had been a lineman for the telegraph company in the mountain mining camps of Utah and a part time gunsmith in his youth and said learn to use the rifle, shotguns are for people that can't hit the side of a barn.

Are there bad apples, sure.

This seems to me a much more valid challenge than what's in my garage or barn.

To be fair and compare apples to apples, you need to pay RE sales costs on the exit of a buy and hold too. 

Taxes here are eight times less, apples to apples so three years vacant here in NC may only be $3000-$4,000 where in NYS, it's $18,000-$30,000.
