But that's a whole lot of moralizing going on, IMO.

Am I overthinking it or do you agree that it just seems morally wrong to do this sort of thing?

The morale of this story … …is to tell you that you need think ahead.

I'm sticking my business model in marketing myself as my normal profession as a cop, due the the know trust, morals and implied ethics instilled in us which isn't there with unknown investors.

I had a help going into commercial though because I bought a few rentals on their personal side and that gentleman was a support of me to the commercial banker.So the moral of my story is that reserves will SAVE your retirement and time will allow you to be smarter and make more risky choices because you have experience.

Good article, but the moral of the story can be boiled down to "when taking on things you're unfamiliar with, use a LICENSED contractor."

The moral of my rant is that it's never the investment, its always the investor.

Im not the moral's police but if she has not been paying the mortgage what did she think was going to happen?

We market our properties for the price we feel they will sell for and not what may or may not be morally correct, this is a business.

@ aaronjunck thank you the moral support!
