@Connor Mckelvey Sorry to say but it is not the bank that is dropping the ball. You are the one who ahould have made sure the downpayment money was in the account eg not paying taxes. Ironically I am in the same situation regarding a loan. Keep us updated and so will I. Meeting with loan officer tomorrow. Wish us luck:)

Possible via Corporation and commercial lending ....

Easiest is JV [Joint venture] with someone local -

I must add the following:

I notice that flip funding is a little easier to obtain. I have been prequalified with 20% down. Last year, nobody wanted to entertain fix and flip loan for me due to 0 flip experience...

You are rich when you can change another person's life.

You are rich when you can actually give money away to charities etc

You are rich when people, politicians  and organizations actually approach you to make donations and you are solicited as a commencement speaker.

You are rich when you can influence society around you.

Every other asset or income bracket is a personal goal which varies. The Farmer in a third world country with 1 acre and 3 oxen can feel rich since that allows him to sustain his lifestyle. Someone who is retired in Costa Rica can feel rich with 2k monthly draw down of retirement assets.

Hi @Ann Bellamy

I missed this event and I am now looking at a project with wetlands on it. Do you have Scott's contacts?
