I want to start a nonprofit eventually to help the poor in the USA & other countries, and I'm considering using my own money or receiving government funds instead of relying on donations from people unless they're just rich ****s.

Another key point in loans is that the broker or direct lender will often try and include the costs into the loan, for some this is fine but you are paying interest on that money over a long period of time....FYI

I had called them my travel retirement plan but learned that I've actually lost money on them by sitting on them so now I spend.  

I have an event coming up in November for private money lenders (one for passive PMLs who are doing it as a side hustle and one for experienced small- to mid-sized PML business owners) in Las Vegas.

Highlight nearby conveniences and any neighborhood growth to attract interest.Focus on framing the size as a bonus that buyers get more space and value for their money compared to smaller homes.

This guarantor, who may be an individual or another entity, will be responsible for the difference between what is owed to the lender to make them whole and what has been recovered.If the lender makes the loan to an individual (natural person), this person is implicitly the guarantor via the note, and no separate guarantee is needed.

Well about 2 years ago that batch all started to hit and then covid money went away. 

I didn't get my money's worth from MFM.Update: Nov 2024- they have restructured their program to have 3 paths: acquisition, capital raise, or underwriting - and have a 12-class program for you to follow for each path (what happened to asset management??).

If I needed this place to make money I'd be in a lot of trouble.

So take into consideration the holding costs of making no money for years into the process.
