Ive read for many years, different people predicting the next great depression, economic collapse etc. is coming and how people need to buy gold - then conveniently at the bottom of the page would be an ad for a place that I could use my soon to be worthless dollars to buy gold from them ( usually at about 30% above the spot price) Don't get me wrong, I like metals and certain hard assets provided I can buy them at what I see as a value ( which is  usually when the market views them as out of favor) As for real estate, I question the desire to own rental property of any type if you think something "at least as bad as the great depression" is coming.

What is important is that they can get your title work done quickly and efficiently and that they are willing to travel to a location that is convenient for all parties involved for closing.

PS – I don't own a sports car, and never have so you've failed in your attempt to make me some cheesy guru.You've conveniently ignored this long explanation from someone who is litigating with NREIG/Affinity Group Management and/or it's affiliate.  

People shoplift from the local convenience store, homeless people do beer grabs at the liquor store, diners dine and dash, employees steal, rehabbers get appliances stolen, insurance companies get fraudulent claims, banks have loans go bad, tenants don't pay rent, etc.You're going through your business's period of loss.

It was based on a poll, which is in reality a series of  questions (conveniently not listed) in which the answers are nothing more than the opinions of the people questioned.There's another even more important factor negating this (and I bet any other "poll") as a valid source facts. 

there are no Asian ghettos or D or F class :)   Same with small sports bar I have one at the division of our neighborhood from resi to commercial and I own the land right across the st.. the lot which is 20k sq ft I have on the market for 600k... and some one will build a 1.2 to 1.5 mil home on it.. so I don't think the sports bar fits either.but the rest certainly do.. also if the convenience store is bared and bullet proof glass and you can buy single cigarettes..  

The phone is there for my convenience not some insurance or window replacement solicitor's convenience. 6. 

If you want to absolve yourself of liability tell them that it is there for convenience but you won't repair or replace. 

Most of the shipping may come from Newark but it's all Port Authority and it's just a more convenient (and cheaper!)

. ;-)On a more serious note, in answer to your thesis, This article just came out:"Roughly 43 million American households have opted to rent rather than buy their homes because of convenience, cost or both." https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/311/topics/59...
