If you have it in emails etc. you could have a position - but as another poster mentioned, giving up $100 a month in rent to only paint two rooms is very very generous so I can see how they thought there would be more rooms involved.

And they end up talking about credit repairs.But then, things turned VERY FISHY:They asked people their credit score and asked us to fill out a "Strategy Session Checklist" that asked about the full legal name, occupation, annual income, bank account $, 401K, IRA, TSP, Available Credit on Cards, and Credit Score.Instead of actually having a 1-1 personal financial coaching, they got your financial info and "taught" you to apply for a credit card and pay for their $39,500 program.

A common strategy used by investors, such as those operating through PadSplit, involves purchasing the property, completing basic rehab, refinancing, and then using cash for the interior build-out.Another potential red flag, even without converting common areas, is the addition of individual locks on bedroom doors.

And I understand that it’s about applying yourself as well.Do you have any programs you’ve tried and had better a better experience? 

You don’t get involved personally.

@Jonathan Cooper - Sounds like a short-tax year is involved.

Here's how you might apply this strategy with your $150K:1.

All the water from the crown of the road floods onto my property and I was informed its illegal to discharge water onto anothers property and that the engineers could apply pressure to the city to have curb and gutter installed.

By the time I got to that point the cost and time involvement was so high I decided it was a distraction to what was already working.  

This is only good for 1 year and only applies to fix and flip.
