My question is, would you just let this ride or does it make more sense to attempt to catch them while they're working and ask them to stop?

It's a ride that I don't care to go on, but hey, I'm probably a bit more conservative than most.

One thing about real estate its forever changing and morphing ..

You’re not overleveraged, so you’re in pretty good condition to ride out a downturn.  

Better yet, you can still find deals that will cash flow a bit or operate at break even, allowing you to ride the appreciation.And I'm very convinced we're still in the early innings for Detroit.

They have a huge amount riding on simply getting you to agree with them, they don't have to be right and they don't spend any time trying to get the perfect comp numbers. 

His head has also morphed into a thumb (idk why).

Most commerical lenders want $1M or more minimum.You might reach out to Nikki Cooper at Truliant Federal Credit Union if you have not already.You may just have to ride our existing loan until lease rate is bumped again.

They seem to be focused on morphing this into a buyer/broker arrangement.I continue to scratch my head wondering why they haven't figured out that I just might be more interested in off-market properties and that a buyer/broker agreement is unattractive because we need a ton of flexibility in how we purchase properties and don't want to be handcuffed.

Very little time on my part.I do drive an hour to mow the grass myself, but only because I might ride a jet ski while I'm there.Life is good.
