Yeah I bet.He basically used wood shims or the planks from pallets to "drywall" his entire house:And as a soffit, which he conveniently put in outlets that tied to the interior of the house.

@Clint Kreider are you seeing this happening in your neck of the woods?

Seems to be very attractive for students and the like and definitely can charge a premium.

We are structuring our deals:8% cumulative pref, 80/2012% cumulative pref, 70/30 15% cumulative pref, 60/40With the option to cash-out in year 3 for a early cash-out premium (no longer owner, plus increase in sponsor fee by at least one point)or With option to cash-out year 5, maintain ownershipDo you split the equity at resale based on Investors initial capital amount, their perf at time of resale, or their split at time of resale?

Tile in the master bath or wood? 

It seems like insurance premiums may go through the roof if importing or exporting expensive cargo by ground to/from Mexico or Canada.

If we make a $2500 claim on a vacant property, it might be declined (or at lease raise a bunch of questions) and the premiums would be at risk to go up if we are lucky enough not to have the policies cancelled.

Assuming your $20k is not a typo, the only thing you will find in our neck of the woods for that price might be a mobile home/trailer, which is going to have very expensive monthly lot fees and would not make a wise 'slow' fix up.And I have been at it for a few years now and have yet to convince my wife to get on board, so I know what you are going through...

Always risky giving back when it comes to appraisals.As far as fencing, chain link in my eyes is actually a detracting quality verse a nice wood or vinyl fence.

This way you can charge a premium rent price and they will rent fast.
