So, they have to fracture, or frac, the rock by pumping fluid into the well at very high pressure.

Sure, if there are big red flags they will put on the brakes, but they have no obligation to do so.  

Both traditional and non traditional ( firewood, propane, lighter fluid, etc).  

Second, when every economic indicator is telling you to pump the brakes a bit, don't have your clients stomp on the accelerator.

My X in 3 years went in for a door squeak. you only change wiper fluid when needed  wiper blades and brake fluid every 25k miles.. so unless you hit something so far mine have been bullet proof .. now to be fair I have only owned them for 3.5 years and I always buy cars new drive them until I am bored with them and get another new one.. so like my model S I sold that last month ( for a price far better than any other used car vis a vi depreciation) and picking up a new X today ..

Both parties lose and it is better to part ways.This speaks again to fluid dynamics - if you are unhappy with your management company interview others and change it! 

"hard money" is very fluid, more based on regional preconceptions. 

I've put gas, oil, tires, brakes, windshield wipers, air filters and 2 new headlight bulbs in it.

Buying programs come on and offline frequently, buildings get re-done and renters requirements are fluid.

You'll have options like immediate refis, bridge loans, various hard and soft money loans, rehab lines of credit, more fluid cash-outs, and quicker turnarounds.
