@Mindy Jensen  well Carl has some big plans for them.. he is thinking of also developing a big property he has and kind of setting them up like a MHP.. sell the container and retain ground rights on long term leases.

@Wesley Branaman, TIC syndications specifically set up to allow deeded ownership of a tic % of the underlying asset, and NNN ground leases are many times set up the same way.

I guess at least she's taking public transit and not running her car into the ground and spending a fortune on gas.

On the positive side, maybe I can help "on the ground" here if you need someone to check out a place.

Of course nothing can replace having boots on the grounds, but her book is a great way to get the lay of the land.

- Do you have someone in person that that isn't just boots on the ground, but understands rehab costs so they can get a proper rehab estimate so you know whether it's a deal or not?

I'm looking to:- consider different markets - tour potential houses - network with other investors (can be in REIAs or a over a lunch on me) - network with investor friendly agents - hopefully make some connections that will give me boots on the ground as this is particularly difficult from Switzerland.

No biggy, its unfinished so I just keep everything up off the ground and the slab is sloped so water runs into the floor drains.

Thank you for sharing your back ground. 

Upper floor footage is worth only half or so of ground floor.
