Wound up getting evicted because Pathlight wouldn't let me pay my rent.

I am currently working on a live in flip, so I couldnt quality for fha or anything lower than a 20% conventional.I wound want to rent it out.

It's not a weird recruiting scheme - it's financial freedom, which I think is why most of us wound up here on BP.

I'm also going to likely increase the deposit and charge a pet deposit now to add to my protection.By "taking it personal" I mean that I don't see it as an insult or wound to my pride.

I really want people to be able to do 10 year projections and understand the FUTURE CASH FLOWs, not just today's cash flows.It just makes you incredibly rich when you have all the information and have chosen the right area.But I do want to tell a little story when I was teaching back in 2006.Back then I taught my own classes in various private studios for classes.I taught in one studio while there were a lot of other RE related classes going on.The Math was difficult, so I never drew a crowd.However, the Cash Flow Now classes were Bigley popular.There was one that not only taught the Cash Flow now, but then chartered buses to take you to the best cash flow places.One of MY students decided to leave my class for theirs.Years later, he came back to me and told me ALL of those students were bused to Detroit and around Michigan, but close by Detroit to find Cash Flowing properties.You can envision the outcome when the Financial Crisis hit and Detroit eventually wound up going bankrupt.All those members of the other class had to do is look at the 3 big Auto Makers and know how bad they were doing to predict their future.

I was told the service person couldn't help and I may get the exam the same day I called but no promises, which is fine, but I actually wound up getting the exam emailed to me later than 1 business day and wasn't given any info about the 15 hr session other than (in the same email with the test), "you will receive info about the 15 hr portion after you complete the exam."

She had 8 showings on it the first 2 days on market, and it wound up in a bidding war.

Maybe the prior owner was a 100% wounded vet (I believe many municipalities will basically zero out the property taxes for a 100% combat wounded vet).Also, where are you investing/looking? 

He asked me what my rate would be and I wound up actually meeting him halfway.I don't think it's necessarily a dirtbag move on the host's part what happened to your friend and I have a feeling your friend knew to an extent that they found a deal that seemed a little too good to be true themselves.

The interest rates are a flesh wound you need to deal with though.
