I am not generally interested in those types of proposals.

@Anthony Hummel I'm curious - what does it entail Platinum Member with ABA and what structure are they proposing to you for what initial setup cost and ongoing maintenance costs?

That’s an extremely problematic proposal.

NOT.The IRS just came out with proposed regulations on the awesome new Pass-Thru Deduction.

I really like the idea proposed by @Michaela G.  

Hi @Charlie MacPherson, I don't have a specific private money strategy for you, though I would counsel that once you have a decent proposal/informal deal idea worked out, the next most critical piece will be getting a sit down conversation with yourself, your client, and your client's bankruptcy attorney.

The counter review staff are not sophisticated land use/planning experts, their job is to review the engineering acceptability of what you're proposing.

Contractors spend hours putting together Bid Proposals and it's not fair to them if you waste their time by 'shopping' and price matching with other Contractors.If you 'bid shop' Contractor's numbers you are going to get a bad reputation, and you will have a hard time finding Contractors to bid your projects.Sure, you may save a few dollars upfront, but ultimately you are going to p*ss off a lot of contractors and potentially hurt your business long-term.

this is not asking for a loan proposal. just want to know if i could ever monetize the lease and the mechanics surrounding it.
