The bottom line ... pretend that you are the financial backer.

I'm not a lawyer and don't pretend to be one.

(nor should they be able to, IMO)Just don't pretend that they are all the sudden better off than you because of this ruling.The judge has only said the police are not REQUIRED to do this, they still can if they choose to just like they always have been able to.Let the police decide if the situation seems necessary to try to determine status.

You want to invest in city Y in this scenario, You'll benefit from your proximity to city X.Other than that, the best suggestion I think I can give is to pretend that you are a tenant looking for a place to live, and ask yourself what you would be looking for (e.g. good schools if you have school age kids, etc).

, Wow that's embarrassing, but at the same time it doesn't really surprise me that it only takes 2 weeks to get a license to fondle and pretend like you're some great security force like the marines or something.

I apologize for this long post, theres not much that gets under my skin especially online because we know anyone can say they know about real estate and pretend to be a sucessfull investor...But throwing a company i work with under bus to potientially destroy their name that dosent sit well with me....smh

Disclaimer- I'm not an acct and don't pretend to be.

@Jon Carter Hide the $10,000 under the mattress and pretend you lost it on your first deal.Ask for just one more chance and get $10,000 more; now with $20,000 to invest...It's called Creative Financing!

A much more honest, respectable and legit way of advertising rather than pretending to be new and wildly successful.And for the record, I "retired" at the age of 29 and own several businesses that are all successful.  

They pretended to understand me but I could tell from their behavior that I wasn't making sense to them.
