You have to have some skin in the game or else why would anyone risk their money on you?

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

Investing in real estate is typically about leveraging your money to control the most amount of real estate - just like the game of Monopoly!

We purchased a property, signed contract for a 45-day SoW (cosmetic rehab, add AC) and after about 30 days it's been radio silence.We have been pretty patient and now at 60-days past closing we've engaged another local PM who is going to be re-keying, assessing rehab status and taking over from here.I think similar to OP there's nothing particularly nefarious or shady going on here, but the follow-through and ability to land a deal is significantly lacking with this team.

I have had this situation come up several times this year, in multiple states, Lenders want to have the borrower have skin in the game at this point in time. 

If Karen wants to continue playing games, might be best to file suit.

I would apply because FEMA disaster assistance can help with uncovered expenses, and we all know how insurance companies play games!

Game over buddy.. sorry :(

. § 452.03 states that no person may engage in or follow the business or occupation of, or advertise as a real estate broker or salesperson without a license.

From my experience, you don’t need to engage a CPA just yet.
