I gave a loan to Malcom and Calm investments over two years ago and have not received a single penny towards repayment of the loan that was due, with interest, a year after the loan was given.

Beyond credit and experience, lenders really pay attention to how you present your numbers.

Something like “Half off first month” or “free Wi-Fi” gets attention without cutting long-term rent.Post in local FB or community groups.

We're getting ready to refinance this deal.Lender is getting their $250K plus interest (no monthly payments).We're borrowing $300K (cash received at closing $50K minus closing costs).Cost to build was around $260K.Cost of the land was around $40K.Equity capture is high five-figures, close to six-figures.What's your biggest hang-up with NEW CONSTRUCTION?!

I frequently receive 20% off coupons from the big box retailers 3. when it comes time to sell, many buyers real estate agents will do homework on the current owner before making an offer.

@Parris Taylor My reminders are tied to my Google calendar - right now they just prompt me in another way that is more apt to grab my attention than a calendar prompt and are more persistent if I'm driving, writing an offer or other thing that makes it easy to get into "ignore mode." 

Ask and ye shall receive

I received an email from a potential client who has a short-term rental property and they are looking for a property manager and asked what my rates and what I offer would be.

I'd like an option to list it as receiving zero rent, which would help communicate vacancy status clearly to owners.My question is...

The private investors he mentioned will lose their invested capital, but chances are pretty good most of them already received more cash than they put in.If this goes on the block, will you have your own syndication lined up to take it over and turn it into a performing property with more conscientious management?
