I've been religious about this because I know how easy it is to lose track of what you're spending when it's all going into and out of a single pot.

Especially after reading all the horror stories on BP of sponsors not really ready for prime time getting in trouble with cash calls or losing the investment entirely. 8.

The "deal killer" name is for emphasis, but the five traits are the description.

Not ready to cash out and lose all that RE income and tax benefits as well. 

Our pro forma for the self storage property we built was rock solid until we opened the business and a year later I was facing losing everything because of all sorts of factors beyond my control.

Almost always it is in the customers favor to exaggerate or make false accusations against a business they are trying to slander vs the business which has much more to lose.

Costing them thousands and making them lose out on homes.

Whether it’s Christmas morning or a regular weekday, acting quickly can be the difference between closing a deal and losing it to someone else.The holidays often feel like a time to slow down and relax, but in real estate, urgency wins.

You may lose your down payment.

Have you ever heard of a Landlord being sued by a Tenant and losing property?
