If an investor is a limited partner, they must understand that the gross profits will be diluted by the compensation that’s paid to the manager and should have an understanding of how much of the deal’s profits they will receive if the deal is successful.

That gets expensive and cuts into profits.  

Especially at the lower end of the market with rents in the $400-600 range, a PM is going to lose money at 8%, maybe break even at 10% and their profit is going to come in that 10-15% range.

With the case from that article, it seems to me the developer is just taking some profit by letting go of the retail space and focusing on the office space. 

As I transition to Georgia in a few months I will be looking to attend the local REIA meetings and invest in real estate.Thank you

I am getting minimal cash flow and would like to put profits from selling toward a better cash flowing property such as a duplex.

If you are looking OOS, I would suggest looking for a market first then find a good Turnkey company is that market.Try looking at:The Best Types of Markets for Profitable Turnkey PropertiesandWhat to Ask When Working With a Turnkey Provider

We are about to close on our first sale (approx $7500 profit) & I've come across a landlord who's retiring.

I know which is very high, my property is listed as non residential as per water company since meter is 8in, currently I am paying as a landlord full monthly water bill and all my profits this bill is eating.I ask the water company my property has submeters if i make those active is the water bill going to reduce by making the property as residential?
