As all New Jersey investors obviously know there is a lockdown in New Jersey and only essential businesses are allowed to be open, was wondering if I am allowed to show my properties to prospective tenants??

I would assume anything requiring a permit or inspection at the city would need to be done by licensed contractors

When reviewing the PPM, be sure to check that this is not included.While reviewing a PPM, my friend noticed this clause:The Company shall indemnify, defend, and hold the Managerharmless from any losses, damages, and costs that relate to the operations of the Company to the fullest extent permitted by law.From the PPM, my friend noticed that the Management and the Sponsorship team appear to be the same people.2 questions:1) Does that clause in my friend's PPM mean that in fact, the sponsorship team is putting the clause that is NOT recommended by Perlman's article?

Two problems  #1 alot of building departments are closing so you cant drop off permits.

All permitted and egress windows.  

This means that even if you wanted to start a construction project you wouldn't be able to because you are unable go through intake for review or pull permits nor can you schedule an inspector to come perform an inspection as everyone is Sheltering in Place. 

It MAY widen your prospective tenant base.Even if it's unused it may make that unit more desirable to some (bragging rights to their buddies) like a hood ornament on a car.Just my 2 cents.

Cold Call (check with your state to see if this legally permitted during a state of emergency. 

All oil tanks require permits in Jersey City.

Remember that the intermediary must hold the funds for the entire 180 days before returning.I am also thinking of taking the 15% capital gains hit...I don't see how I would be able to find a long term rental tenant in an environment where evictions are not permitted, realtors can't show homes in person in certain places, and many folks are out of work, shrinking the pool of potential renters.
