@Bruce Lynn, while I am guessing because I don't know "most" large multifamily, I would say it is very much manager dependent and likely to become more common place as many syndicators are struggling to make their mortgage payments.Ownership companies are still run by people, and people that don't have enough money to pay their bills will start prioritizing who to pay based on the perceived risks of not paying.As for taking over any outstanding bills, that is one of many issues of the common LLC transfer.  

The biggest hurdles, obstacles, and challenges in life that limit your belief and mental structure in no particular order:1)Thinking where you start is where you finish.2)People resting or stopping in the middle, not at the end. 3)Prioritizing instant gratification rather than delayed gratification4)The controversial mark twain  quote or not quote--It ain't what you don't know that gets you in trouble, it's what you know that ain't so.5) The lack of an ability to move on.6) Not appreciating the power of delegation.There's probably 2-3 others I am missing, but over time these have rang so true in any instance I have faced in life.
