The GC will get an architect to handle it and blueprints around a grand at your cost.

This guy had a grand slam deal set up, Jon told him what the P+S was called, and then.....nothing.

There will always be people looking for the fast buck, making grand promises, etc.

like I have no say in the grand scheme, seems like a small pyramid scheme or is this normal course of action in this buis?

If you get a property off the MLS and you market it up a couple grand and the investors sees the listing price they will not take you serious at all.

After you become a more experienced RE investor you will change your mind and know that a measly few grand was nothing and that you wished you had done it.

Doing something like taking $15 grand out against your car at 3% gets you a long way towards that 25% equity stake you need without damaging your cash reserves.

You never want to be caught "structuring" - that is bad and you will be looking over your shoulder forever wondering when a Grand Jury is thinking of looking into your practices.

Okay........Have a tenant that I filed eviction on.The county was backed up so took awhile on the writ.Marshall is serving the eviction the 21st of November after 3 months from filing court date.The woman became disabled and filed for SSI disability.I talked to her case worker and the usual time for review is 2 years to get approved or denied.She told them she was getting evicted and sent evidence.They escalated and marked file for review.When I discussed with case worker even though file is flagged it still has to go through the judge for review which takes 2 to 4 weeks and then if approved SSI will send me the landlord the back rent owed which is around 4,000 with late fees and penalties.So the answer from SSI will not be in time before the eviction.I already told the tenant today I need at least half 2,000 or I am not stopping the marshall from evicting on the 21st.The lady says she would call me back and says she might could get the money but the issue is she can't pay me because when she goes for review for SSI they will ask where she got the money to pay rent.Then she could lose benefits or amount of lifetime benefits going forward and will not risk the lifetime benefit.She said if I just waited I am on the forms to get paid when she gets approved.My thing is If I cancel the marshall then I have to refile eviction and with the Holidays it will be January or February before I get them out.I told the lady I was not stopping it for a 600 payment and that she is not guaranteed SSI approval and I can't stop it on a PROMISE.We will see what she does.I told her to pay by Sunday.If I get 2 grand now it will be one less unit I have to rehab and then if SSI doesn't come through with the rest in 4 weeks I can evict again.She is judgement proof even though I have one on her I can't collect from pensions etc. with garnishment or bank levy.She was a tenant I inherited from a previous landlord 4 months ago when I bought the place and she used to pay on time before getting hurt with her back.Any thoughts or dealings with SSI Disability will be helpful.

Get more details, get an estimate of repairs, and then shop the deal around to see if you can't turn your $100 into a few grand.
