I'm more concerned on if it's going to be a good deal or not.

If you were looking at buying in Florida, but your lender is in NY or California, they dont really have to be as concerned about their reputation because the realtors (most likely) will never work with them again. #1 is the primary reason, but #2 does factor in as well.

Mortar, paint & bonding materials deteriorate leaving cracks, gaps, etc. which can be concerning to look at, but this is very often addressed with repointing.

I am concerned that it is a ponsi scheme.  

Sharing your concerns can help others learn and overcome similar anxieties.

Please see my earlier response to address your concerns.

Some do not subscribe to Facebook, out of concerns for privacy.

I have some lined up but will need more so I appreciate all the feedback/concerns as I start to shop it around. 

I would shoot him a text and follow up with a letter through the mail to be 100% sure if I was concerned.

I am very concerned about so many investors being presented with questionable marketing practices and charging such high prices for information.
