I usually do the elliptical for cardio an hour at a time for a 900 calorie burn and 6.0 miles and 10,000 strides incline 10 resistance 9.I also train in the martial arts for over a decade and also the last few years have been doing Krav Maga.

Repackage it for the busy young professionals who want to be able to walk to work and are several years off from promotions, spouses and buying their dreamhouses D)buy portfolios- folks who retire or inherit a bunch of motley properties will dump them all as a package for 40 cents on the dollar.

In fact, the NRA favored restrictions in those days and promoted it.

So if you form an LLC to hold your rental properties, but you personally manage your rentals, the LLC will not shield you from personal liability if your property burns down because it did not have smoke detectors.

I thought that would surely be considered promotion.

As for the rate of vacancies, its hugely dependant on the area and class of properties again, and whether or not you want to deal with government supported tenants (what you call section 8 in the US)- for me, in Japan, its a no-brainer, since they're nothing like yours in the US, but if that's where you plan to invest, you'd better give this some thought - these tenants will fill up your vacancies fast, but come with a whole unique set of issues.Totally with you on the leverage front, wouldn't touch a mortgage with a ten foot pole these days, seen too many smart individuals and savvy companies (and I'm not saying this with cynicism) get very badly burned with assumptions regarding appreciation, depreciation and amortization - to think the GFC is a once in a lifetime event and will never happen again is the biggest (and dumbest) gamble of all, in my perspective.The amount of time you'll spend on each property, again, is a direct factor of the class of properties and areas you invest in, and the quality of your chosen team, in particular your property manager.

It costs capital and time to take a listing and promote it and a broker/agent only gets paid when it closes and not when it is just listed.If a broker/agent takes some that sell and some that do not then they are spinning their wheels and the cash from closings is going to prop up the loser listings.

You get to close to the flame with the grey areas and you will get burned pretty bad.

That same thing (questionable valued deals) happens in all kinds of real estate deals you'll come across, but it's just easier for you to get burned if you are trying to invest nationwide.As you can imagine, there are buyers that are way ahead of us who cherry pick the most desirable notes.

Many investors have been burned by unprofessional vendors, and I think this would be a great way to help curb that possibility.
