But shockingly not all Private Money Lenders are sneaky scam artists.

I’ve found many to be scams, especially the ridiculously low priced listings.   2) As you look for a home to live in, know what is most important (strong rental potential, high appreciation, etc.) to you and be ready to make some trade offs. 3) If you’re looking ITP (inside I-285), visit the Atlanta Regional Commission website and the Atlanta Beltline website to gain an understanding of planned development for various areas, ie Westside Park, Westside Trail, transportation, etc)Best of luck and enjoy the journey!!

@Sam Shirazi warranties are a scam.

Hurry up and wire all your cash to my bank account because you just set yourself up to be scammed out of every penny you have."

This could very well be a scam.

Thank you for the post, it should clear things up and help people that ask about this, seems it comes up a lot....People should take note of the extreme difference between SERVICE ANIMALS (legitimate and needed) and ESAs (woke scams).....

It was likely just another scam.

Appropriate upfront fees that cover costs like application fees and search fees, up to about $200, are a fair upfront cost and not likely a scam.

I am a very skeptical person and dont want to get scammed into pay 10xs more for a product.

Very common tactic for the Fake lenders out there who do nothing but collect up front money and are just a scam / criminal enterprise.
