We do lending and we ask the question - if you have been doing this for ten years and don't have any money where did it all go? 

Government assistance/tax credits are of course a consideration that is factored in to the cost/benefit analysis of any form of new energy generation, as all forms of energy are heavily subsidized and always have been, long before solar entered the equation. 

All of their products are Dutch-interest and their highest leverage option is a 1st position with a 2nd position loan wrapped with it to get to higher leverages.  

I agree strongly with all the above. 

I do have some investment experience and I'm currently managing 1 property, all the numbers are great and there's a good amount of cash flow and long term growth so I'm not a total green horn. 

And then you argue with me saying that I don't know all the details (as in, well, these days even a man can get pregnant.)

Or you could wire all the funds to there escrow acct, bid and pay if you win, then request the remainder of funds to be refunded. 

This all comes down to how much you are looking to spend and the class of property/class of tenants you want to deal with.

First, appreciate all the replies to this topic.

I have been using RentRedi as a way to do all the screening and applications.
