I cannot emphasize the use of a plumbed washer pan enough. 

They prefer a consistent return based on a 20-30 year triple net lease with income jumps every 5 years.Yes, for investors who want RE speculation with little to no current tax sheltered cash flow your model would be preferred.On the other hand , a safer passive investment approach emphasizing cash flow and cost segregation tax saving benefits that don t fluctuate, makes investors happy by getting a 100% ROI after 3 years.

Not easy.This is why I emphasize sponsor experience and track record when making an investment.

@Bill F. when I got to about 20 - 25 single family homes and 1 commercial building they started emphasizing the importance of my global financial statement and they started requiring me to have 10% of the loan amounts in liquid cash in their bank before they would keep giving me more loans.

I have used this strategy 3 times and I’m currently using it on a large home in Gilbert, Arizona where the tenant rents pay all the costs of the home plus the rents pay down about $750 a month in principal pay down.This post emphasizes the importance of having reserves when purchasing a rental property. 

Then, if I have a brief question in between sales, I send them a note (usually as reply to their "you are welcome response" to my original "thank you" - emphasize we've connected before) or I give them a call, while trying to respect their time.My limited experience validates @Josh James feedback with respect to title and banks. 

While we use a lot of the same strategy between each client, I also need to emphasize that we build asset protection strategies around the client’s needs - so structures do vary between client needs and states.As Brian Bradley has mentioned before, it really comes down to making it as difficult as humanly possible to to tie the assets to you.

Account Closed One point that bears emphasizing.

When we start looking for investment properties, we will send a more professional letter that clearly identify us as investors and emphasize the benefits (cash offer, quick closing, no hassles with listing it or having to do updates). 

@Scott Lepore where I agree very strongly with you is that it is not as it is promoted most often, as it seems to be under emphasized the difficulty level it can be due to the exact recipe that must be followed.
