I suggest you go to the horse's mouth, google "CFPB" Consumer Financial Protection Board.

Just beating a dead horse . . . not a deal.

I'm told the liens equate to about $88,000.Property Details: 4BR/2BA, Log Home, 2300sqft, 2 story, balcony’s on both floors, located on just over 5 acres of land, detached garage, stables for horses and about 2.5acres of fenced pasture.

Agents are also considered same and I would argue so are RE professionals.I stand by my opinionated position and will accept yours as well, no need to beat the horse anymore, I think the community has enough opinions on both sides here now.

We have some great back country roads around the lake that any road race driver would enjoy, for me, at times, a few of those "S" curves that I know like the back of my hand are just too much of a temptation.I'm happy to hear Jay that you have enjoyed your method in your construction deals, but you and your attorney are misinformed if you think a note sets a partnership, it may have the effect with similar outcomes.Repeating what you do doesn't make it more correct or prudent, people should not be doing this, you can, if you have issues, you're a big boy, you can handle the issues or losses or ramifications, others can't so well.My temptations running through those curves is much like yours in doing deals you like to do, if I get a ticket, I'll just pay it.

If you don't like how they are handling your business, then have a group session and explain your expectations etc. without the "I'm on my high horse mentality."

I have a wife and four kids, so spare money is tight, but im determined to get out of the rat race and the things I am getting rid of are not near as important as my financial freedom!

Goes for the gurus, authors and mentors too.The CFPB has a hotline (for lenders) to have questions answered, you might get through to speak to them and get something from the horse's mouth.Before you get involved in any financing transaction of any kind, see your attorney (one familiar with financing issues, not just RE).Passing off "Rent-to-Own" deals is really the target of regulators as far as RE investors goes, more consumers get screwed in these "scams" than any other that I know of.

And they have pit bulls or horses.
