You can still get something closed before year end!

We would never recommend that for our clients.

Owner ended up settling with the tenant, but then we had to threaten to sue our own client to get them to pay our legal fees.- Owner must sign a Hold Harmless to indemnify us against any potential tenant lawsuits relating to the work their contractor is doing.--- Another lawsuit resulted from owner's contractor taking down basement handrail to get supplies down the steps, then they didn't put it back and tenant fell down the stairs.- We also negotiate a reasonable completion date, depending on the Scope Of Work (SOW). --- Who gets all the phone calls and wastes time calming a tenant down because the owner's contractor doesn't show up as scheduled after they took time off from work or a 3 day job takes 3 weeks?

We have fired owners in the past but never due to over communication.

All too often, at the end of 5 years -- that's not what happened.

But I would strongly advise, never letting somebody else do your due diligence on an investment for you. 

Brandon Turner here on BP has written a few good books to help.Lessons Learned:  Never let your emotions get in the way. 

From day one, we’ve never loaned a dime to anyone we haven’t previously met and gotten to know at least a little.

Never heard of him.Make sure you perform proper due diligence.

NEVER .
