My good friend does nothing but notes and makes a decent annual return, but he doesn't benefit from appreciation, depreciation, and the larger total rates of return found in prudent income properties.Bottom line is your IRA can be a great tax fee vehicle, but you are bound to certain rules and regulations.

Besides there are lots of regulations and high utility on landlords.

Never paid and just left during the holidays.I guess the main question is if the tenant has any legal recourse if he is able to get a doc to sign off on some health issue due to a possible mold environment.

The ability to learn technical matters, concepts and adaptability of rules, regulations and laws.Math skills are really rather basic in RE but again, being able to use correct methods applicable to math problems is a must.

Everything is negotiable but property managers enjoy uniformity in rules and regulations among their properties for the sake of ease and comfort.

I am also trying to work/volunteer in a real estate agency or mortgage company.I want to be exposed to that environment.

We have been very very busy trying to pull everything together for the upcoming project such as creating a operations model, creating a pay scale, creating a budget, creating rules and regulations for our sub-contractors, trying to find qualified sub-contractors to hire and the list goes on and on and on!!!!

Are you less regulated with the commercial lending approach?

Well the reality is things DO NOT run fine without gov't regulation and interference.

Very cool for urban environment.
