Being the tax conservative guy I am I roll my eyes to this, but we are ultimately a team so, we are still in the talks about it. super excited about having this train on inch forward! 

Sometimes we need confirmation of what we intuitively already see and your response addressed that for me :)I appreciate that we see eye to eye about the long-term effects of climate change.

It's important to always have an eye out for opportunities.

In my case I'm looking at commercial property because residential prices in my area are eye watering.

I'll keep my eyes peeled for what you're after, feel free to message me you wants & needs, budget, etc.

Of course anything non-tradtional but safe in googles eyes! 

If I was local to it and could verify things frequently with my own eyes I'd consider an arrangement like that. 

I am keeping an eye out for buy and hold deals but know that rents vary wildly depending on where you are in town.

But from the bank side, or from a "experienced" investors eyes, what is the line to getting the label and the "street cred"(if you will) of being an experienced investor?

Should have gotten a second opinion and set of eyes on the unit before I bought.
