Once had a deal under contract and thought the money would just flock to me because the deal was worthy and had a lot of merit.

Do they have any merit to ask for this info?

Even if they are not, it’s better to just evaluate the merit of the claim by the HOA than to engage in a comparison as to which of your neighbors is offending the most.

“Pottstown’s rental inspections regime is a way to get around constitutional protections for privacy rights, and we look forward to litigating this case based on the facts on the ground.”After the Pottstown residents compile a full record, there will be a decision on the merits at the Montgomery County Court of Common Pleas.

Without discussing the merits of his post...S-corps and c-corps as creatures of federal tax law, and not entities. 

Some people who are vindictive may just come back and sue for abuse of process if you start filing complaints that might have no merit.  

You submit your project application ( we lend based on project merit ) once its reviewed and meets the criteria we issue a term sheet for your review ( rate and term of loan ) once that is accepted then we require the initial upfront cost of the appraisal, etc...

Yes they need to be "sophisticated" investors....Meaning they have the business experience to evaluate the merits of a deal...but if someone cannot evaluate the deal I would never have them invest anyway. 

All non-accredited investors, either alone or with a purchaser representative, must be sophisticated—that is, they must have sufficient knowledge and experience in financial and business matters to make them capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the prospective investment.

I find it interesting that many pundits in the media are always clamoring to invest in the latest and greatest company, and how few of those same people are discussing the merits of commercial property ownership.
