Quote from @Naqi Taylor: For those actively syndicating or allocating into stabilized commercial assets — how much weight do you put on NOI durability versus headline upside?

AirBnB does not collect security deposits, so I setup OwnerRez to collect the security deposit as they recommend in their documentation (https://www.ownerrez.com/support/articles/security-deposit-h...).

Quote from @Michael Santeusanio: Do you think experience carries more weight than numbers when securing capital?

I’m looking for input from private lenders and operators who have experience structuring secured loans for small commercial manufacturing businesses.Here’s the situation:I operate a Delaware holding company that owns a licensed cannabis-infused beverage and consumer goods manufacturing operation in Denver.

I installed an ADT home security system at the time and have since been paying a monthly subscription for their services for the past 4 years in total.

Also any recommendations for solar powered outdoor security cameras that you’ve tried and make sense. 

Quote from @Kajal Aggarwal: Hi BP Fam,Recently one of our tenants vacated and we couldn't return the security deposit within 21 days as we were traveling and could not check the property/estimate the repairs.

Why pay a premium if they aren't holding their weight.

In contrast, the transactions that continue to perform are usually underwritten with defensible ARVs, realistic absorption assumptions, and margin for error.From our vantage point, a few things have become increasingly important:Averaging comps rather than anchoring to the highest saleGiving more weight to most recent closings over peak pricingStress-testing ARV against slightly longer hold times and softer exitsLeaving room for execution risk—because something almost always pops upOptimistic ARVs may help a deal look good on paper, but conservative ARVs are what keep projects financeable and profitable when conditions change mid-project.We’re not advocating for pessimism—just discipline.

So minimal damage, and I have had one guy move in for 7 months, his dog pulled up all the grass in the backyard and some other stuff which cost us the full security deposit $3,600.00.
