It smells like 7 day old sardines and sauerkraut to me, but I'm not a securities attorney, so I asked one, using that "guru's" example:******************QuestionWhat is the difference between Crowdfunding and a Syndication?

For this size apartment,, 4 people in a 600 sq ft apt,, would be like packed like sardines..I always set my occupancy well below the standard.. my 1 bedrooms were limited to single person occupancy..2br's 2 people,, studio's 1 person.. and no pets..and no smoking.. 

The N Q 7 train is packed as it is, sometimes waiting 2 trains before even getting a chance to step into the sardine can.

I moved from a very densely populated area in Los Angeles to Ventura County because my son reached about 6 months old and I was tired of being packed in like a sardine. 

If you are not a shark you are a sardine!

Back in 2016 and even as recent as summer of 2017, I seen probably 1.5 more or perhaps even double the houses that are on the market now, especially in hot areasTake all of 30314 and parts of 30318 for example, in 2016 there were lots of homes on the market being sold anywhere from the 60k-110k price points...duplexes, turnkey SFHs, 2 and 3 story homes,  SFHs with over 2k sq ft, just about everything...sure they needed work but the bones for most of the homes were decent and with maybe 15k-30k of work, you would have a home that could be priced in the 300ks in the next two or so years.Now, I see maybe 1 or 2 of those in 30314 under the 180k price point that hit the market per month, and then those homes are fought over like sharks over sardines.

Remember college kids today are not going to share a bathroom and live like sardines.

@Joe SplitrockGreat thread, Joe, great contribution, @Matt Williams.I can only imagine how the bitterness builds up working as a sub for a large flooring contractor who sardine-packs your schedule and tells you that putting in fast, just-good-enough floors has to be your highest priority as long as you sub for him.

My favorite bar in the world is on Lower Sardine, stunning location and fun old school camp vibe.

As I get wiser about real estate and learn more, I'm getting sicker and sicker of the people I'm forced to live so close to in these sardine can condos and their ridiculous pretensions.
