All it ends up being is one person saying "Is not!"

He's efficient and personable and is very able to assist you with questions if needed.Hope to discuss this with you further,

Great for personal residence but not for scaling.  

No personal income or tax returns are required.

This approach could keep things straightforward while accommodating their need for housing.

Personally, I've felt the investment has been poorly run in almost every possible way.

I personally would never invest somewhere that could outlaw rentals.

I love talking personal finance and real estate investing so I would be happy to help.

Agreed mate,I'm all about taking personal responsibility and I have been swindled many times in a similar fashion like many feel on this thread.It seems like these investors including myself in other instances get negligent and don't read between the lines.Especially after trust and a relationship have been established, we become gullible and don't second guess or question.Maybe it's greed for some but in my instance it wasn't.Just innocent and trusting stupidity (No, I'm never a victim as that is ******** mentality in my book).I had some spare $$$ and wanted to diversify in other assets through folks I considered friends and trustworthy business partners.Didn't even think twice to look things over.Looking back, it all makes sense now but it's easy being a general after the battle heheI only blame myself here...I mentioned in the thread further above that I lost to the tune of hundreds of thousands of dollars.Again, it is what it is and it's a lesson.Only myself to blame and have always taken the high road in such instances.As much as I'd like to fight for justice and go down the legal path, it just isn't worth the time and emotion.Upwards and onwards.Become better and make more than you have lost.Each to their own and that's just my personal "modus operandi"

And always check social media for red flags and I agree with Vince, always meet a person.
