I would to use the money to invest in these shoes that are coming out soon.

How would you approach this in my shoes?

@Kevin Gerace  you may want to put yourself in their shoes - They are probably only in town for a limited time and feel they have to do the clean out - which they have probably been gearing themselves up for for years!  

We've been in your shoes.  

Obviously I can't tell you definitively without seeing it but If there is only water leaking when the tub is running and at no other time you are likely looking at bad putty or rubber on the drain shoe, possibly a leak in the trap or drain, or it could be a bad pipe going to the tub spout or shower riser. 

Not a bad person, the shoe just doesn't fit.

Basically the wholesaler's advertising is saying "HELLO, I HAVE A CONTRACT FOR SALE (ASSIGNMENT) TO CLOSE ON THIS PROPERTY- IF YOU WANT TO HOP IN MY SHOES AS THE BUYER, THERE WILL BE A ASSIGNMENT FEE AND EARNEST MONEY DEPOSIT..Quick thinking inside the box guy, and stating false statements on things you have no clue are true or otherwise. 

If this is something you think that you would enjoy, go for it, but put most of your money in more passive investments.Just my humble opinion of what I would do in your shoes.  

From my service the biggest lesson I have learned is always find someone has been in these boots/shoes before.  

Can´t imagine what´d I´d say other than that, besides encourage you to stick around here and share your experiences with other forums members - everybody can benefit from your input, whether they be in your shoes, before, or after.
