The people who make good money but are too busy to worry about investing because they work a lot or worse, just don’t have any interest in finance who believe the best defense is a good offense.

NO OFFENSE TO THE PROFESSION OR NEED, BUT IT IS MEDICAL SLAVE LABOR IN MANY REGARDS.

No offense to property managers.Thanks -Rich

Hey Rafael - thanks for the input, no offense taken...a little back story: I found an investor to buy the seller's remaining inventory 15 months ago for 4.2MIL, which the seller declined...since then, prices have dropped further, and now the seller is willing to take 3.3MIL...but now my investors are only willing to go as high as 2.4MIL, which he delined again...so the frustration comes from putting real offers into the seller's hands, and him balking waiting for the "pie in the sky" deal...he could have been done with this 15 months ago had he taken the 4.2, where now he would gladly accept that...problem is, market changed again, and he's not being realistic...so believe me, I did concern myself with the seller throughout this whole process, trying to get him the best deal I could, while still being fair to the investors...seller just seems to have unrealistic expectations, so my thought was to now see if I could go straight to the bank, and see if they maybe could help "convince" the seller to take what is being offered...you know, maybe hearing it from another source might strike a chord...in any event, since I started this post, the seller seems to be a bit more willing to discuss and compromise his position, and we are scheduled for a call in a couple hours with both potential buyer and seller.Keeping my fingers crossed...Thanks for your honest opinion...

Please don't anyone take offense to my above post as nothing bad is intended by it.Oh yea, my numbers.32 years old now, retire at 55. 5k to 6k a month income 500k saved.

My suggesting is, no offense, stop giving suggestions.

Go ahead and do a background check just to make sure you don't have someone coming in with conduct or drug offenses on their record.

Hey @Dave Gillie, thanks for responding....No offense meant....sorry if my comments sounded less than encouraging - they were only meant to be honest and real.

In fact in my state they can be charged with a criminal offense if they do that.

I already get a bunch of calls I don't want, so that is probably the most appreciated thing you said...no offense to the rest.
