From what I have researched they seem legitimate but the person I am working with is flakey, takes forever to answer questions so I thought I would see if anyone else had experience with this lender.  

I appreciate your energy and readiness to learn.

Instead of being discouraged by a property that doesn’t quite meet your needs, why not see it as a chance to personalize and add value right from the start?

Quote from @Jeffrey Duck: I see no reason to pay an attorney for this, but it's your dime.The current lease was between you and Person B.

When we met, I learned that it was a project I was interested in.

@Denis Orlov I don't do STR, but I've rented one of my personal properties for arbitrage before. 

I’d love to learn from your successes (and challenges) as we continue to refine our approach.Looking forward to your insights and feedback!

Hopefully they do or your personal insurance covers them.

I have a lot of personal experience with BRRRR—both from building my own rental portfolio here in Memphis, TN and from helping both local and out-of-state investors successfully scale their portfolios using this strategy.One of the biggest advantages I’ve been able to offer my clients is structuring deals with hard money lenders in a way that allows them to acquire properties with less than $10,000 out of pocket in most cases which results them in massive cash on cash returns!

There's no way around it unless you specifically work for one person only.
