TIP:  always google using "review guru name" to get a broad opinion of the promoter of REI material.

Typically a 10/90 with an escalating promote doesn't work well for the active partner once the majority of the value has been extracted from the property. 

Earn a promotion or raise.

Charge renters a cleaning fee at the end of their visit that is separate from their daily rental charge.Any advice contained in this post is not intended or written to be used, and cannot be used, for the purpose of (i) avoiding penalties under the Internal Revenue Code or (ii) promoting, marketing or recommending to another party any transaction or matter that is contained in this document.

I know that real estate is something that I could get extremely passionate about and although I don't have direct experience, I know that my diverse background can probably help me. 

What I look for most is a steady, DIVERSE, economy. 

It’s VERY diverse with good schools.

Very diverse population which i like. 

I feel that Indianapolis has much more economic diversity - tech companies, pharmaceutical/medical, several colleges, manufacturing, distribution centers, hospitality/convention centers -- so we are not as affected if one particular industry takes a dive.Our real estate areas are also very diverse.  

If you feel compelled to promote your local candidate with a lawn or window sign - buy a house - but don't put your sign in my property (even if I happen to agree with your choice.)
