Can they prove how long it takes to rent a vacant property?

I would only do it if the amount were worth the trouble and I had strong documentation to prove my case.

The competition is really tough right now. 

Especially in todays' day and age with all the chaos going on in the world.It's important to have a vivid vision and use that keep yourself going when the going gets tough!

It's pretty comprehensive.In terms of adding units...that's a tough one. 

*Buy and provide a golf cart as an additional fee (which I view as you best chance prove the value and cash flow from the asset)*Do not buy a golf cart, but simply provide info to a local golf cart rental.

Finding phone numbers / getting responses is tough.

Its tough to give more advice without actual numbers to see the sale proceeds versus the down payments.Nothing wrong with a 50/50 split other than when it comes time to take out your share in cash other than split rents. 

NO lender is going to send you copy of their bank account.. they might have to prove up to a seller or the sellers agent but never send it to you right out of the gate.. and all the other things you discovered its just an off shore scammer trying to scam those that dont know what they dont know.

There is No rents to see if it will support itself after the refinance, so its tough to speculate on ROI/cash flow on a long term investment.
