Yet several didn't treat their tenants right or didn't bother to reinvest their money to keep up with change/ worst case scenarios. 

Account Closed Here are my thoughts: 1) While I generally agree with all that a primary res is best, esp a hack...I've always looked at it like the Football Draft....they always say take the best player available, regardless of whether it's the exact position you want or need.

I’ve got 1-2 big players with plenty of cash in my market that are buying large businesses, maybe 3-5 medium sized investors that have realtors who give them first pick, and some small fish like myself I’m competing with.

WHY.Well when you have a tenant  who just moved in the last thing they want is to be bothered by scheduling home inspections or appraisals. this leads to delays and your tenants don't like it so you already start out with a tenant who has been inconvenienced and let someone in their home maybe multiple times  IE inspections and things are found and now you have to send workers back in.

Her noise and partying bothered all the tenants.

Do I bother to address it while tenants are there?

CoStar, one of the biggest players in the real estate data space, announced that they're going to build Virginia's tallest building along the James River in Richmond.

If the roof has life left in it, I wouldn’t bother to remove/replace unless it absolutely needs to get done because it’s leaking or damaged or something.

I have confidence in our ability to compete with just about anybody out there, so it doesn't bother me if they shop around.

People called it a game changer, going to “democratize” real estate investing, make syndicators transparent, put the little guy on equal footing with the major players, and allow every investor to enjoy the superior returns once reserved for wealthy investors only.Well, if measured against the projections, crowdfunding real estate has failed miserably for investors.
