The occupancy requirement and lien are a policy designed to support our mission, not a jail sentence. 

However, you left me hanging with your last sentence. 

If you'd like, I can PM you and discuss what type of deal you might be interested in finding.Thanks,JBIt's rare that I see anyone mention CA and Kansas City for buy and hold in the same sentence.

I am not following the last two sentences of your post, would you mind clarifying.

Stalker and serial killer:) LOLI hope the didn't stop at that sentence:)There is NO better way for financial freedom that RE!

Read that last sentence 1,000,000 times.

Please pardon me if that seems callous and selfish but I’m a republican capitalist so I don’t believe in ~hope and change~You see I’m not smart enough to play the stock market ( I can barely string sentences together on this message board) and I can’t throw a piece of inflated leather 80 yards  down a field , or slam dunk a basketball so looks like I’m stuck renting out these dumpy houses to idiots with non opposing thumbs to make extra money for the remainder of my life .

@Jay Hinrichs @JD Martin @Mike Dymski@Jerry W @Mike Dymski @Russell Brazil @Dave Foster @Joe Splitrock @Steve Vaughan @Ned CareyThank you, Matthew, and a hearty back at you.it's like being honored by a hall of famer in the same sentence with a bunch of other hall of famers and makes my day.   

The difference in you and I isn't real estate experience - it's I've spent time digging in, talking with, visiting with, meeting partners of and seeing "green newbies" make money with the man and you have not.Appreciate the new word though - "gauche" I'm going to memorize it and put it in a sentence :)I think a good approach to these scenarios is a response like "Hey BP - Mike is very inspiring with these articles but we have had scam artists on BP many time so make sure you do your homework."
