I understand that syndication investments are low transaction volume investments and, therefore, less of a need for checkbook control.

So, your going to spend $800,000 in the sort term and pull $700,000 back leaving $100,000 tied up with a return of $1000 a month?

Hello- I have been spending a considerable amount of time calling multifamily owners in my farm area and keep running into the same problem.

Doesn't sound like your home office is your primary office, if you have an office at your W2 job where you spend 40+ hours a week.

If you do it now, you know for sure prior to purchasing.I don't know how much you are spending for the building, but how critical is $2,000 in a $1M building (Just a random number)?

For all the turnkey investors out there:I'm starting to look into this space and I'm noticing that a post-rehabbed 65k single family house in Indianapolis (sold by Morris Invest) brings you, give or take, $1,000 in rent whereas in Milwaukee you need to spend a post-rehabbed 85k for a single family house (sold by Home Invest) to bring you about $1k in rent.So my question is, if you're after cash-flows, are there any reasons an investor would go with the house in Milwaukee versus Indianapolis?

Why not take all the money you would spend on the line of credit each month and add it to your mortgage as a principle curtailment.
