@Susan ElliottIf you are considering implementing RUBS and charging a flat amount rather than using a defined formula, make sure that the amount you charge never exceeds the amount you pay for a given utility.

Only you can define those parameters - and they should be defined clearly.

Because Freddie Mac has specific programs to provide debt for student apartment investing, it naturally follows that they would be compelled to define it.

I own a property management company that has 750 residential units under management and am a value add / buy and hold investor.Owning real estate is absolutely the best path to financial freedom, but I think it's important to define what that means to you.

@Robert CaverlyNo, a 401(k) may not be pledged as collateral for a personal debt.One can personally borrow from their 401(k), but that is a different matter.IRS rules surrounding prohibited transactions apply to both 401k and IRA based plans, and are defined in IRC section 4975.Section 4975(C)(1)(b) speaks directly to this particular issue.

From a liability stand point most states have laws that define either a "reasonable amount of time," or 24 hours to clear dangerous conditions.

It has been my experience that partnerships have worked well for me in short-term ventures with a well-defined path and end goal.

If you don’t have a clear and defined reason for having one I can’t see how you would ever find one or if you did how do you know you selected the next one.

You make some great points though and will definately give me some considerations to think more into.
