Moral of the story- check your limiting beliefs.

My predicament comes from the situation of living in one of if not the most overpriced real estate markets in the world right now.My goal in joining this forum and building relationships with the people on this site is to navigate this difficult real estate market in order to advance my financial situation to better the life of my family.I understand allot to starting in this game is taking action and not sitting back on the fence but I find myself in an area that doesn't allow for an ideal return on equity as far as real estate investing for flipping/renting for positive cashflow.I look forward to having productive conversations with the fine people here on biggerpockets forum in hopes of helping other people succeed while succeeding myself in the ever changing world of real estate.Cheers,Matt Bouwman

The seller wanted to sue the investor/realtor for assigning the home to someone who ended up causing $15k damage, and the buyer wanted to sue the investor/realtor for the $15k assignment fee they paid about a year before the deal fell apart, even though they failed in their obligation to the seller and trashed the house.Long story short, both the seller and the buyer's attorney's ended up threatening the managing broker of the investor with a lawsuit after they both tried "legally extorting" a collective $30k from the investor/realtor unsuccessfully, and the managing broker started to panic as well, which also had a negative impact on the investor/realtor too.So here's the moral of the story:1.

You really need to think this through, figure out your plan, and decide if you are morally good with lies and deception.

And if not what's the proper way to go about it morally and ethically correct?

Does anyone have a similar predicament, wherein you may be able to offer multiple solutions to property owners as a buyer, wholesaler and/or agent? 

Then I started researching about flipping them and the opinions of wetter it's a good idea or a terrible idea are about 50/50 so now I am in the same predicament again and worried I will make a terrible mistake.

If you find out there's a problem you'll be at least morally obligated to fix or disclose it, neither which will net you another penny.Your plumber works with homeowners more than flippers so the advice, though good, doesn't apply to you.

I'm sorry you're in this predicament.
