If you feel they're being too harsh, think about their intent.

@Harsh Jain I like whats going on in merced, but you will need to elaborate on your strategy and the deal itself to really determine if its a good deal.

I didn’t take anything anyone has said in a harsh way or offensive, especially coming from a place that has made my skin very thick.

Sorry to sound harsh - If the only step you took is create an LLC without buying / selling any real estate, that is not a huge leap. 

@Marc WinterI see a lot of older investors on here talking down at this guy, like yourself and others, and just think it’s harsh and uncalled for.

It is to my understanding that California is pretty harsh on LLC's which might not make it financially worth it for me to use one.let me know what your thoughts are.Thank you everybody.

Without sounding too harsh, you need to save money, the reality is, in this business you need access to money at any given time, or you are setting yourself up for failure, and I dont mean just the down payment.

I apologize for my harsh comments previously.

It sounds harsh but they are the ones taking advantage of you.

This is less harsh than saying "No" and is more easily accepted.
