If there are any, hopefully they are limited to the current owner and manager not the property or location.

Just to make some money is not a goal, especially if you are not sure what your doing and your funds are limited.

Las Vegas has very limited land resources which are quickly being exhausted.

I assume that the best structure would be a mixture of cash and loans, but would love advice.I need to find/purchase raw land (currently looking around 10-50 miles outside Austin City Limits), build out the infrastructure with my construction company, and ideally purchase/own all of the trailers I rent out at a monthly rate.Questions:1) How much of my own money should I use (20%, 50%, as much or little as possible)?

Partners obtaining financing was an added bonus by limiting my liability.

The legal limit for interest on a mortgage is 20%; therefore hard money lenders are well within their right to charge 10-15% in exchange for the risk they take and the benefits they provide.

if you are buying in a secondary location you need to know that when you sell it will impact on your selling price and also limit your market as there will be buyers that not buy in inferior locations, due to noise etc.

As far as the 10 loan limit, perhaps you can get a blanket loan on the 3 properties you currently own now to wrap them up together.

About half our applicants don't have income that meets the 2-3x rent threshold, even with positions in architecture, software engineering, etc. which is an indicator that we're approaching the upper limit of what people can afford. 

Most co-op's limit leases to 1-2 years.
