The mafia is too soft for my taste in these matters! 

Currently doing repairs from a tenant departure. Shocking how little regard people have for a brand new house that doesn't belong to them. Life lessons!One of the allowed deductions beyond material damage is wear tear...

My wife is a soft-spoken 5'2" asian lady. 

If you buy a house and the market is soft in 3 years, just don't sell it.

I'm assuming the developer has already paid for all of the soft costs (architecture, permitting) before you, the investor comes along. 

I am looking for an investor to partially fund some of the soft costs for a large townhouse project I'm working on. 

There are a few joists I can physically stick a finger into the wood is so soft.

What began as a very soft Spring STR shopping season crescendoed with Memorial Day weekend resulting in prime active listings going pending within just a few days and several with multiple offers. 

@John Mason, the way we have experienced Amex is that we had one personal card and they did a soft pull when they extended credit to each of our LLCs. 

Don't confuse that success with material.How you want to invest, depending on age/family/risk tolerance;90% hard assets, 10% soft to 60% hard,40% soft.
