This project was the definition of learning by doing, and now I’ve got the battle scars to prove it.

Which is definitely something I’d recommend starting out.

If you need financial help, ask under the "Finance, Tax, and Legal" forum.

—namely, Isaac Winkles, reporting companies for which Isaac Winkles is the beneficial owner or applicant, the National Small Business Association, and members of the National Small Business Association (as of March 1, 2024)—are not currently required to report their beneficial ownership information to FinCEN at this time.This email is not intended to provide legal advice or serve as a substitute for legal research to address specific situations.

Obviously this may vary by market but we would not accept partial payments as it does make things more challenging legally if you need to evict them.

But it is definitely worth asking.

But for you I would definitely leverage the banks money as much as you can and just keep money on the side for reserves.

Quote from @Jim Bryant: This is why it's important to understand how the legal system works before investing in an area.

I have a legal question about a contract I have with a wholesaler and the $5000 EMDI was under contract for a property that I learned had liens on it..... it states in the contract that title must be marketable and if not, then I would get my EMD back.....

I’m definitely going to look to connect with other investors in the metro-Detroit and Ypsilanti area.
