There are just not enough bodies to deal with it...not at the police, not at the shelter level, not in the community.  

It is advisable to do your due diligence and ask about such things as how long have they been in business, are alternative assets their sole focus, are they BBB accredited and rated, are they a regulated financial institution, have they ever been sanctioned by any regulatory bodies, how many accounts and how much in assets do they administer?

While I'd normally be against higher and higher levels of gov't telling those gov't bodies "under them" what to do, (like feds to the states, states to counties and cities, etc) I think the state legislature did the right move here, even though if I were running the inspection dept in Shorewood for instance, I'd probably be just as tough as they are now because they have a generally older housing stock ranging from middle class to grand old mansions along the lake and why let anyone come in and pull any half a&$ repair jobs on any property in the village?

There is a new body of rules coming into focus that allows general solicitation of private offerings but if you want to go there you'll need specific legal advice before you even begin the offering documents.Your best bet is to make postings about previous deals, past performance, your skills, and your track record.

The body can't sustain over 8 hour work schedules forever especially as we age.

Although I believe in second chances, I would at a minimum not renew the lease if I even decided to purchase the property for a number of reasons:-You already know what they tenant is capable of (this is why we screen)-Obviously the present tenants don't know or care but future tenants may, especially if you are doing renovations and increasing rentsOther factors include reputation and questions about what else was lack by the previous management (what other warm bodies fill the units).

Hi Guys,I made an offer around 2 month ago, now it's almost time to close, but TITLE company find out there's a loan near $10,000 doens't have record since 1985, although it has been transfered between 2 or 3 different owners(no body clean it).

But private / hard money lenders don't have that, and depending on a real estate attorney who has written some hard money contracts doesn't mean they know the nuances of keeping you out of trouble with the banking commission or any other regulatory body.  

has any body ever heard or used hiddenlistings.com. they have alot of foreclose homes and they boast they have listings not on the mls yet.

I would recommend posting this as your message with your town in the body of the message.
