What are some good rules of thumb to use when accounting for vacancies?

I used to work as a HUD Account Manager (I managed REO foreclosures for many big banks as well) and there was always a process.

Too me that sounds a bit weird seeing as the whole point of investing in RE is to make significant more than the CPI, and he will get plenty with the cashflow, amortization, and capital gains on top of his initial investment.My partner has about 1/4 of his capital tied up in a savings account.

@Drew PoniewazAs George indicated, location is generally not the primary deciding factor when selecting a provider for a self-directed IRA or 401k based retirement plan.This is a very specialty field, with a handful of providers.There are about 3-4 dozen companies that act as custodians, basically processing the investments you direct them to execute on behalf of your IRA account. 

Can anyone offer their thoughts on the process from, collecting the first year upfront, or if you use the money that the people put down to start the escrow account.

Is there anything else you guys would account for?
