Oh I suppose that makes sense, I guess everyone who bought milk at Walgreen's isn't getting taken advantage of, I guess they are just paying for a service they find more valuable than I do.Third, my lead to gold reference is really more about peoples perceived stupidity and differences in priorities and preferences than weather or not there is fraud being committed.

We thank you for commitment to service of our great land. 

Reasons why most investors will get a new survey:Title commitment will except from coverage any encroachment, encumbrance, violation….adverse circumstance that would be disclosed by an accurate and complete survey.  

The would-be investor has so much junk in their heads that there's little room for making a decision and committing to doing their first deal.

Unfortunately, you can't read ALL the fine print until you commit some serious money.

I can't possibly get something under contract without first showing proof of funds - So I thought maybe I could have a few private lenders lined up, go find a property I like, take it back to the few possible lenders I might have and then get a commitment which would then allow me to make an offer...

thank you BenThank you JohnRegarding self-employment over a w-2 jobWhen I was just out of the Marine Corps and I had this job at Johnson Controls engineering firm because I was a science major, had a lot of calculus physics and chemistryMy job was to sell to developers and builders That wanted air and water  control devices and I was on straight commission basicallyI had like $20,000 in commissions that they  didn't pay me for I got really upset and at 25 yrs of age I didn't have very much EQ, and my emotions got the best me I basically even went to a lawyer and asked  how can I get my 20,000 in commissions here's the proof they owe me the moneyMy lawyer says it's gonna cost you 10,000 in legal fees to sue them at a minimum he's going to need that upfront as a retainerAnd then there was no guarantees I would get the 20 kThat's why I made the commitment at 25 never ever ever be a W-2 employee and I work as a 1099 alwaysThen I found a real estate 60-year-old mentor who taught me everything from distressed property to foreclosures to divorce to bankruptcy to probateI work for five hundred a week for 2 and a half years and then opened up my own business and did approximately 28 seller interviews a weekMy closing ratio in the beginning wasn't very good because I sucked at itBut with the good coaching from my teacher I got better and better and betterI quit after 2 1/2 years and started my own company on a shoestring it wasn't easyBut I made over hundred thousand dollars my first year if it wasn't for the teacher I would not know how to run a business and I would not know how to hire people and I would not know how to market and I would not know how to negotiateAnd you never stop learning because I made a Ton of money I was 29 and I made over 1 million and a quarter I rolled it back into the company which was a mistakeBut live and learn!

I certainly don't mean to rain on your parade but I think you need to do a little more homework before committing to your current plan.

Michael, The horrible situation described in the think progress article should be covered under the legal concept of 'lack of foreseesbilty'.I believe the surviving party who's name is on the lease inform the landlord he cannot be held legally responsible for a random act an committed by a government agency who actions resulted in the death of a friend who's presence at the residence at the time could not have been reasonably predicted to have produced an outcome that would have normally resulted in damage to the property owners property.
