I was just participating in a 'refi til I die' thread... interesting discussion.  

Also they have a partnership program where you can offer the insurance yourself outside of any of the listing sites - you have to have at least 10 properties in order to participate.

And I have no desire to participate in that.Btw, I don't know about anyone else, but when it comes to most discussions related to our economics or politics, I'm willing to admit that on the Dunning-Kruger chart, I'm at the peak of Mount Stupid (okay, perhaps I'm tumbling down the other side at this point).

Most interest bearing accounts would yield minimal interest and would not be worth your time trying to calculate or divide amongst the "participating" tenants. 

The public, who participates in this, generally doesn't just want the safety of the asset behind the loan, but also expects the HML to qualify the borrower using conventional criteria such as FICO scores, personal assets, bank statements, etc.

One in Downtown LA, and the other in Culver City. (2 more possibilities is Hollywood & The Valley)Wanted to see if any other members here would be interested in participating?

I don't participate in the "appreciation will fix it" plan.

I've experienced more than six figures of incremental, unnecessary out of pocket costs related to contractor negligence (and fraud) to the point where it has influenced my strategy and how I am willing to participate in REI.

Everything inside will be high end such as wood floor, stainless appliances, etc, so I'm trying to figure out if I should continue to enhance the house in the backyard or if I should let the new owner figure out how they want to design the backyard.

They key is having enough hours in direct material participation in the operation of the rental activity.
