With the protective coating you know that even if tenants spill water and leave it on the floor you have a much longer grace period before your joints swell.

The only catch is you are then locked into seasoning periods until you can refinance out. 

The notice period for a month to month Tenant can be given in the middle of the month? 

Think about a DST as the "container" that is used to fund property acquisition, property management fees over the hold period, any reserves estimated for the assets under the hold period, and syndication fees.

You can always save more money by buying something to live in such as a Duplex/Tri-Plex and taking advantage of low to zero down payment loans.After you have lived in the home for a specific period of time you can rent out all units and move on to another primary. 

Its also useful for me, since other lenders that offer mortgages before the 6 month refi period are doing it at 6-8% rates. 2 of my 3 properties have been acquired within the past 6 months so having this private money is a good investment for them, and also helps me bridge that day 1 to 6 month mark.As far as off-market, I'm trying to get my lead gen going a bit so I can pick up my own deals so I'm happy to say those methods are coming together.

Sure, that's only for a very limited period of time, but every little bit helps people right now. 

I would just like to diversify and have something that I can possibly hold for a long period of time.

Would like units be be resolved and cleared out at different time periods versus based on the first of the month starting the Auction or eviction cycle.Whatever fits your lifestyle.
