What I do is go on loopnet and pretend like Im buying a building, looking to see if its a good deal or not.

This may sound stupid, but I once travelled to U.S. and pretended to meet with the CPA on a day that I did not know it was Labor Day (yes, you can laugh).

It sounds like you still ended up with a good deal, and you signed knowingly.Let's do a thought exercise: pretend you haven't signed and the deal is before you.

I have never used this strategy but I understand that if you pay cash, you can do a "delayed financing" withing 6 months and the bank pretends that it was the same as if you financed at closing.  

It will be obvious that you are new, so if you pretend to be anything else you will come off as a phony.

We had people putting info of relatives pretending to be the landlord.There are also few other things I recommend doing during the screening process.

I'm no economist or pretend to act like I know what he was talking about, but essentially he said:Rising interest rates will halt any economic growth.

Either that, or this is just a pretend scenario.

But do not pretend that by doing so you are approaching some sort of Platonic form of ideal landlord hood.  

Eventually they will morph to sending an email from the title company to call the fake number and the fraudster will be on the other end pretending to be the title company.
