It's so nice to have that safety net.

Thankfully I have no property in NY.I loved this quote which shows just how clueless people are about housing issues:“Housing instability is at the root of so many problems facing our city, such as exacerbating homelessness and hunger, failing to meet our children’s educational needs, and undermining public safety,” said the CWTU in a statement.

Cut rates until it rents.

And there's not a huge short cut - if you want a $500k income from real estate, you're going to have to invest $5M at a 10% return, or maybe you're really good at this and can get a 20% return on $2.5M of invested cash. 

Let them build through hard work like teaming with reputable operator who may take a cut but own the project etc.Neal Bawa and associated companies are another bunch or lier’s who project rosy picture to sign up people but fial to deliver.Those two have made my experience with real estate very companies very negative.

This contract includes an exclusivity clause to prevent your clients from bypassing you and going straight to the lenders to cut out your commission. 

I believe that the Federal Reserve is going to cut rates by 25-50 bps at it's September meeting (no emergency cut), but that 30-year fixed rate mortgage rates will rise to upper 6s low 7s around the same time, and Commercial borrowing rates, including for multifamily, will increase as well. 

You can say a knife is dangerous because it can cut yourself with it.

But you want to build a financial safety net for them.  2.  

Congrats on having the cajones to cut the chord.
