Occasionally there is some fluctuation, but I rarely find it difficult to find good tenants other than a seasonal issue around the Thanksgiving/Christmas holidays.

Because of the drought across the U.S. many crops and cattle were affected.The shortages happened months ago but reserve supplies have been worked through.Now as demand is the same but with limited supply certain items beef,corn,etc. is going to really rise.It has been going up in small increments but will go up in bigger chunks soon.Smart restaurants are looking at what is not rising or is minimal in increase and trying to create flavor dishes so that their price margins don't go up and the profit shrinks.They still might use some of the products increasing in price but with less quantity in the dish to cut costs.This is why for instance if I buy a restaurant business I would adjust down the stated profit model to compensate for the coming higher food costs unless I knew I had a fixed food contract and the supplier could not go up on me.My background before triple net investing and apartments was commercial land development so I find your assembling of parcels interesting and would like to hear more about it and your plans.

The area around Brown University would be an exception to that, but unfortunately it wasn't worth maintaining an infrastructure to support an occasional deal.

Excellent cash flow above expenses that would push me over my goal for annual income from "passive" investments so it is a big deal I want to do and willing to invest in heavily, but also want to have the best strategy and know who to go look for about financing it.Assuming a std 25% down requirement, I can afford it, but would be maxing out our investment capital (thus no new projects for a while or not with cash anyway, I do an occasional rehab flip here and there).

Example if you have a ton of potential contacts that buy the dumpy little houses then you are looking at being a residential agent and occasionally sell a house, duplex, triplex etc.

Because occasionally we get a call from other states telling us to stop putting out bandit signs and we say.. we are a located in another state.. and we ship them nationwide...Sorry we can't help you...They think we are the ones that put them out as well...

i'm primarily looking for rehabs, and in the future i'd like to add the occasional good rental to my portfolio.

You can occasionally come across no down and deferred payment deals.

We'll occasionally have sales on products.

Another alternative is to use Dawn dish detergent.
