I'm a big proponent of education; but you have just proven what most of us (possibly more educated) already know...that a degree doesn't equate intelligence...nor does the lack thereof mean one is "not" intelligent.

@Ken Bringing intelligence, time, knowledge, credibility, integrity and some "Skin" to the deal.

Automation, technology, the net, robotics, now Artificial Intelligence are taking jobs away at a rapid pace.

In my opinion, the benefit of government-subsidized financing through Fannie or Freddie outweighs the liability protection and other benefits provided by the LLC;2.You have little or no assets, income or expectation of future income (in other words, you are judgment-proof); or3.You don’t have the discipline and/or intelligence to keep the LLC separate from your personal business.

Its likely possible that you will learn enough, if you stick with it, to hold an intelligent conversation with a lawyer.

I was a high level executive & worked my way to that position using 3 foundational principles - working effectively each hour on the job, developed social skills known today as emotional intelligence & very consistent follow up.I was a mediocre high school student, dropped out of college & became autodidact, learning specific things to advance my personal life & working life.

Your name without the s, so you know I got your back.You are a very intelligent, very motivated individual with an extreme desire to overcome.

The scammer uses their intelligence and pride to talk them into things.

You don't just have to do bare minimum stuff to get it up to code using renovation financing, you can put in hardwood floors, new windows, etc.They will not let you add silly things that wont add value (giant unicorn statue in the front yard, etc), but if it's something a reasonably intelligent landlord would want to put in, it'll probably be ok to include it in the reno because things that increase rent tend to also be things that increase value.
