You definitely don't want strangers driving across your property.

Stranger things have happened.

I think you need to first take a step back and treat her as if she was a stranger coming off the street asking you to forgo getting an investment property and instead invest in their business.What is her business plan?

Meeting is essential as you can tell right away if it is well-trained or not, how it reacts to strangers (at least you), and you've been introduced in case you ever have to enter the premises in an emergency.

Most successful investors will never prove their worth or ability to strangers or to people outside the finance world.

I love the feedback and the time you've invested in me, a complete stranger.

It seems hard to imagine credit tightening but stranger things have happened.If you have a F&C house you are pretty conservative so you should be fine.

At the end of the day though, best to do my HW and be safe rather than be sorry because I trusted a stranger and didn't take every precaution.

Some of my most profound findings on this subject were confirmed when I actually dealt with fellow gamers (strangers) in an internet cafe where they behaved differently to me in person and differently in game chat (they knew it was me).

Second i would be a little leery providing too much personal information to a stranger basically.
