A long time ago i invested in residential real estate and had a bad experience with a couple tenants.I see the that the world for sharing knowledge amongst owners and investors has changed considerably.I am working in the Self Storage field as a Bird Dog for now. 

Nothing worse than a bad review about a dirty house.Stock the kitchen with pots, pans, glasses etc and at least basic seasonings.I provide paper products (paper towels, T.P. ect) I also provide coffee pot, filters and coffee.As you start getting reviews your listing will show up closer to the top and that will help you get more bookings and reviews.

The good news is we are living a lot longer, the bad news is we are not prepared for it, and the financial and legal services industries are very traditional and slow to evolve.

What happened with the deal that went bad?

Is it a bad idea?

I’ve used SL Lending and they are great to work with and will keep you out of a bad deal.

My purpose is not to try to make you feel bad but I think apartments are a good way to go right now.Good luck to you!

Not that it’s bad just curious. 

I think the most important detail is to know your partner, then do a detailed LLC or JVP agreement and spell everything out, down to last detail, including an exit/dissolution in case things go bad. 

Is this a bad idea since the unit will no longer have a full bath?
