This is one of those things that just makes me shake my head and wonder what people are thinking!

But, still I cannot shake off my suspicion that this PM teams up with this tenant to extract money from me.

Apparently, the big shots of this country havefigured out a way to make money coming and goingwith the taxpayer getting stuck footing the bill.And, all the while, the politicians shaking their fingers at each other.

The event is also far more than an opportunity to listen to some speaker; it is the opportunity to shake hands, share a drink, spend time with, and do business with these speakers and your peers.Certainly some people will have difficulty making it due to scheduling issues.

If they get pissed off.. shake it off, say you're sorry for bothering them and move on to the next one.

That allowed me to buy, fix, sell, and use the equity to do the same but with a larger property.So I hate to answer your question with an answer that doesn't really apply -- but if you can get some money in the game (shake the couch cushions, or as friends/family) you have many more options.The other thing is to work hard and birddog properties for local buyers.

It feels kind of like making a deal with a hand shake and not putting it on paper and then having the other party(me) back out.

I did run into a couple rehab surprises for example there was 3 layers of asphault shingle and the original cedar shake shingles.

I'd rather, if I had to do deals like this, rent it to them a bit higher than market if possible and then just sell it to them on a hand shake later on!

Ten minutes later he shows up with cash, shakes my hand and says thank you for for being so understanding.
