Just yesterday I gave my (imo) balance view of the use of “subject to” in real property transactions, and was told by a very proficient poster in response to my post that anyone who thinks subject to transactions are ok is GARBAGE. 

Other issues have include; rodent's, which led to two dishwasher hose replacement, washing machine hose replacement, two garbage disposal fixes (one being tenant's fault), and a frozen pipe.

I don't think rent to retirement can vet a deal any better than anyone else or you, they just have a bit of a system. but the new builds in Lehigh acres, Cape Coral, north port, etc are all garbage. septic systems, poor economics, low rent to purchase price ratios, you are banking on appreciation and buying at market. building direct is going to give you a competitive advantage on a 3 unit let's say worth 600,000 you are going to be 120k ahead than if you bought it through them. that's my analysis. if you are super lazy and too busy to make money and have millions to throw around then I'd recommend not thinking much about investing. but you can also invest in funds and be way omre passive than buying a new build from far away. but if you want to add real value then get involved and make it happen. getting wealthy isn't easy. you work hard for your money and there are build to rent developers like us that try to answer and add value to start buiding relationshipsl

I only wrote the post because there are so many so called “gurus” out there trying to sell garbage on the subject and it’s not helping anyone.

I finished mine and their project is still stuck at the phase with a bunch of garbage in the front. 

"Garbage in, garbage out."

Suman, like the all too common vast majority, is using incomplete math, and as is said "garbage in - garbage out". 

build it instead of buying it. especially in the 5-50 range you are going to get garbage that's 80-120 years old in c neighborhoods. i can find land in almost any zip code and make the numbers work in columbus. or partner on a project locally. just my 2 cents but build to rent is much stronger right now in my opinion in columbus than buying existing assets 

I've bought a few residential deals from wholesalers over the years but generally I agree... 99% of what I receive from them is absolutely garbage.
