My shoes are all bagged.

I would avoid fly by night clubs or the flashy ones whose organizers seem to have all the answers and or who sell their own unrated expensive "mentoring", "coaching", or God forbid "partnering" programs (which are often schemes to make you a straw buyer in a leveraged deal where they put gobs of money in their pocket, and leave you holding the bag in an unprofitable deal.Look for a club that is a member in good standing with the National REIA, and DO NOT buy into expensive programs and NEVER do a deal your own hand picked attorney hasn't signed off on- and don't pick an attorney from the club ;)

Maybe they can help you out.Maybe if you hold this dirt bag's feet to the fire, she will prioritize your house...

Hey Tiger, wasn't meaning to pull your tail and make you feel like some justification was in order, I'm well aware how PMs can get left holding the bag and why a reasonable slush fund, reserve, escrow or funds be set aside.

(I really should have given her a bag of three-prong adapters for a move in present... but I didn't)

I promise – if the deal is good enough and if you have enough tools in your bag, the money will be there…It is a pleasure to make your acquaintance here on BP.

That drives the pack bag until you remove those conditions, or block access entirely.Look into the cost to cure.

I explain to them that I'm not handing over a garbage bag full of cash and you throw me the keys.

You're on the right track, but I think the perspective is slightly off.The guy stuck holding the bag (in your example, the "pension fund") is never evaluating any of the individual assets.

Mounting a toilet on a floating floor is asking for problems as well.In a kitchen, all it takes is a leaky bag-o-garbage left sitting on laminate overnight, and the edges if the laminate will soak it up and joints will swell.
