I am a bit biased since I am a Realtor; but, a GOOD Realtor is worth their weight in gold.  

Some step on the attic and make a dent because of their weight.

I foresee a slow gradual build on the west side of the island.  

I understand how it works on a property I 100% own, so it is just a fractional % weighting if you invest in a syndication?

The same way I can tell you how to lose weight, but it doesn't mean that in 6 months you'll be 20 pounds lighter.

At that time in the US, it was, "Easy Ways to Lose Weight."

Hopefully you can renegotiate with your investors...and maybe even lower your price a bit too...Your holding costs are worth lowering that price and getting out from underneath the weight...GS

If the first two are stable or increasing gradually, then that's likely good for rentals.

I have spent almost 2 months learning as much as I could and along the way taking action, such as marketing, networking, and learning the legalities by partnering up with an attorney (worth their weight in gold).

I'm in it for the long haul, so if the numbers work today the future doesn't concern me as much, but I would hope home prices and rent continually and gradually increased and hopefully within the next 5-10 years interest rates came down to allow me to either refinance and pull a lot of cash out, or greatly reduce my mortgage.But in an effort to get my wife involved and excited about real estate we've switch gears and are currently looking for an STR along the NC coast.
