Just food for thought when making bids.

I don't mess with food!

After placing food coloring in the upstairs toilet it appears there is a leak.

Do the other products (cigs, food, oil, candy, soda) make money?

Brandon,Do you have any experience in restaurants or the food business?

Townhome 2 bed 1 and 1/2 bath , two story. 955 sqft has a decent little fenced patio/yard section.Price $225k5% down rate around 7.95%Will be my primary residence, Austin Tx, area is decent, breweries, food trailers, close to shopping center, and soccer stadium.The residence isnt terrible just needs a few things, kitchen appliances, remove carpet for plank vinyl.I know it won't cash flow right out the gate , I can maintain the monthly note and have a 6 month emergency fund.

Google how to check for a leaky toilet, but you simply need to put food coloring in the top of the toilet and if it feeds down to the bowl in 10-15 minutes, the toilet is leaking water and needs to be fixed or replaced.

Assuming this is an annual fee then it would be $42/month.So, you're paying your PMC about $132 monthly.Assuming your PMC is trying to make more than the $18-20 they can make working at a fast food place, let's say they bill you at $25/hour.$132/$25 = 5.3 hours/monthHow much do you expect them to do with the 5.3 hours?

Affordable housing is a great need in cities large and small, and I know we have hardworking families and adults who are excellent tenants and just need some assistance for the basics (food, clothing, shelter). 

Very useful input @Scott Mac on the difference between 80 LPs @ $50k and 4 at @ $1MM.My bigger vision is to get to a place with back office overheads, internal cash flows, and technology that would allow passive ranch investing to be available for as low as $500/ea for retail, non accredited investors.That is the democratization aspect and the vision/values vs execution dilemma I face when testing at $50,000 vs $1,000,000.Due to the registration being much cheaper, I must go the route of accredited investors only, for now.My subjective, populist, nationalist, rural Montana beliefs deep down in my bones that still emotionally and personally influence my decision-making-bias is that what we have in Montana is 1-special, 2-should be shared without being too commercialized and gentrified, and 3-is quickly being lost.With ranches as we all know, and I fully accept, becoming only for the UHNW, part of my core-motivation and driving belief is that technology (online syndication) should present an opportunity in the marketplace to bring in more of the "Average American" to participate, appreciate, and benefit from this asset; not just for it's historical performance, but for its actual tangible benefits (the feels).Pride in ownership, sense of place, vesting/shared interest in ecology, community, and food production.First it must be an asset though, one that makes sense in someone's diversified portfolio.
