You are marketing to property owners, we need to market to investors/buyers, however results should be comparable for both.

You may just consider comparing the traditional SDIRA model to the C corp (solo k) or even checkbook IRA model.

Section 8 will compare the rent of the unit to other units in the immediate area to determine if the rent is reasonable. 

This basically puts the cash contributions in a higher priority compared to your sweat equity.Sounds like you are getting ready to expand the empire!

For properties that fall outside the norm your search parameters can be expanded beyound those guidlines so that there are enough sales to compare.

I don't remember much emphasis on market/repair analysis compared to the drama within the team.

You will get to know who is transferring property to an LLC or trust and who owns multiple properties in the area.When you find an area that you believe is an opportunity then sharpen your focus and continue to monitor the area so that you become familiar with the type of property available and what it is listed for compared to what the ultimate sales price is.I like to contact owners who are several years behind in real estate tax.

Even if it was not completely rent free it would a dramatic reduction compared to what i am currently paying in rent, $1300.

Comparables.

It's a great system and i'm sure it's comparable to buildium, etc.
