Decided to play it safe as it was my first deal and had to overcome the fear.

The two younger brothers are asking to be let out of the lease, as they fear the jailed brother will eventually seek revenge on them for complying with the search warrant at the property where all of the electronic assets were seized.  

My main fear is that I've underestimated my Opex assumptions or will miss some major issue during inspection that will turn the deal into an alligator property.For the last 4 months I've been stuck in analysis paralysis and haven't been able to just pull the trigger on a deal.

Having seen earlier proposals for Boston ordinances it seems a pretty reasonable compromise proposal to allow residents to offset Boston’s sky high prices by renting out all or part of their homes, while preventing non-local investors from further removing already limited housing supply (the ultimate fear of all housing departments).

I'm ready to try to move past that fear, and your response was what I needed today to keep things moving forward. 

It's normal to feel uncertain, but knowledge can help reduce fear and guide you through the process.For those navigating these complexities, there are resources available that can assist with understanding your options.

I fear the consequences of many doing deals like the former. 

The city is about to build a new park right next door and I fear that these properties will somehow ruin that too. 

I think everyone has a little fear going into something new, but just remember, people did it before you.

For God gave us a spirit not of fear but of power and love and self control."  2 Timothy 1:7You call yourself a mentor here, so DO BETTER.
