I have been on their email list for years now and seen these offering, so I am familiar with them, but I did not invest once I learned what the money was actually invested in, which seemed ridiculous!

But no, that sounds ridiculously expensive for design cost. 

Otherwise, when he has laid a foundation and is not able to finish, all who observe it begin to ridicule him, saying, ‘This man began to build and was not able to finish.’

A CPA told me they charge 65$ per 15 minutes per consultation which I thought was ridiculous but I don't know the current rate in the area. 

If you believe you are going to create new case law.....I wish you even more luck....Doctor who is given 100% financed loan creates new legal precedent arguing the loan has "ridiculous terms"....I don't think so

I live & invest in Chicago but recently have turned my head towards Northwest Indiana because of the landlord friendly laws, it's ridiculously costly in Chicago if you have to evict! 

We ended up having to de-winterize for the appraisal, which was ridiculous, and had tons of issues with the third party appraisal manager from Chase as well as the third party asset manager used by HUD.

They are ridiculously one sided and what these guys say and what gets put in writing are two entirely different things. 

In my limited experience with this small number of syndications, they were very desperate to buy basically anything in order to have "deal flow" (these properties were not for sale, they approached me off market and made me ridiculous offers which I couldn't refuse despite not planning to sell these properties for another 10 years or so). 

If you are in a higher asset class many deny on credit score which usually is not seen as income discrimination which is also fair but there are actually a couple left leaning areas where credit score rating can be seen as illegally discriminatory which is ridiculous.
