I am sure that this used to happen all the time, and I am sure that it still happens occasionally....however, i do not believe that "most" banks subscribe to this philosophy.

I guess you could say I am a believer in the "ready, fire, aim" philosophy but was quite excited to come across what looks my first qualified lead.  

My philosophy is that if you have good tenants with good values, they'll pay their rent and take care of your place.

So everyone has very different philosophies and goals :)I highly recommend you also check out- the blogs, forums and listen to the podcasts.

So what is your philosophy here?

That is about as close to that ridiculous win-win philosophy as you could get, but it sounds still more like a win for them and a lose for you.Win-win.

This philosophy has served me very well, especially in business, it is my foundation for my success.Others have been there for me before, most all of them are gone, it's time to pay it back, it's a duty.The duty can be overwhelming at times, while there is appreciation from many there is also rejection, but, you can't expect everyone to listen or agree all the time. 

I find most people that rely on the mental philosophies are generally lazy and looking for instant gratification or simply hiding from real life.

I love the philosophy and will DEFINITELY proceed in this manner!

You'll need to get a little more dialed into your investment philosophy in order to effectively go about the "how"- Commercial Loan: Contact a local lender or mortgage broker. - Buy Land: Contact a location-specifc broker. - Find Builders: Network --> ask for referral based on your target marketIf this is your first acquisitions, I would take a strong look at properties that are well performing and stabelized (filled).
