I found this Post from Prince Jorby 2 months ago very interesting: Hi, I’m actually a current tenant at a Crew/Book & Ladder property (Campus Walk Chico) and recently discovered they forged my lease:The lease in my portal originally showed a Fresno IP address I’ve never used, with no signatures.After I questioned it, they deleted that page and uploaded a new version with a backdated owner signature, still with no tenant signature.They’ve been charging me utilities and add-on fees I never agreed to, based on this forged lease.I have screenshots, Blue Moon’s confirmation the lease wasn’t properly executed, and a SHA-256 hash + video comparison showing the forgery steps.Since I saw you’re discussing Crew’s investor issues, I thought you might want to know this fraud extends to tenants as well, not just investors.

Just for comparison, our most expensive mentor cost us $50,000. 

Everything I've read shows Pittsburgh has stronger appreciation, but that could be my local bias.Happy to do some comparisons of the numbers and see what would make the most sense long term! 

,A client and I recently did an IRR comparison between real estate and stocks to help him decide his next investment move. 

There's ceiling in CRE, but no ceiling in single family.third,the valuation of CRE is solely follows the actual rent it receivedso lets go back to the first one , this has nothing to do with interest rate at beginning, but lets give comparison. 

People, I am an ant in comparison to that elephant and even I have that kind of structure where I'd sit back and giggle as someone tried to burn through one of my s-corps attempting to connect another, not-gonna-happen. 

If they’re on a long lease and you’d face months of vacancy, it may make sense to stagger improvements.Rule of thumb: If the cost to rehab the second unit pays for itself in 24 months or less and increases the ARV, it’s usually worth it.If you want, I’m happy to mock up a quick BRRRR refinance/cash flow comparison using your numbers – it really helps clarify which path leaves you in the best position after the refi.Reggie Truss

Quote from @Ivan Green: Hi Everyone,Just sharing some insights about the latest developments in loan comparison technology.

I find the calculations with S&P500 and rentals to be challenging because it's not an apples to apples comparison.

Below is a comparison between Nevada, Texas, and Florida.State average property tax source.Average insurance source.Florida's average insurance cost sourceTo put this in perspective, below are the estimated annual operating costs for a $400,000 property.Compared to a property in Nevada, properties in other states require significant additional cash flow to compensate for their higher operating costs.Florida: +$11,311 ($14,636 - $3,325)Texas: +$5,712 ($9,037 - $3,325)The takeaway is that operating costs can have a huge impact on financial independence.Janet, these are what I believe the most important issues to consider when choosing an investment city.
