@Bill Gulley@Jeffrey Goldman@Micah Copeland   its exactly these questions and the responses that are really give wholesaling a bad name here you have someone who wants to do this but does not really know what to do but is ONLY worried about him getting out of the deal no worry for the poor seller and the predicament you could put them into with your basically false contract.. then others who think its perfectly ok to just stick Wiesel clauses in these deals while you throw up a bunch of crap and see what sticks... what ever happened to being honest forthright and getting your ducks in a row before you start...

Only with this particular tenant, we had tower rack pulled out of wall and with this countertop crack the way shown, I suspect between it is either a damage through false usage or natural weak point as few colleagues have mentioned.I am working w/ granite fabricator try to have this repaired and hopefully we can add support to prevent this from further damage.I really appreciate everyone's input on this issue. 

HML are in business to lend money and to think that a HML would lend 100% of the funding and take all the risk is absurd.

I do think $25k is almost absurdly low, and it is likely a much higher offer would still give you a good deal, but do your homework and make the offer that would work for you.

That is why I get really annoyed when people post what is obviously false information.

A whole LOT of rather poorly done enthusiasm building and offering of false hopes.

My most common issue is tenants taking down smoke detectors to prevent false alarms.

The pros are lower entry price. the cons are false sense of control and false sense of lower costs.

Just as Apple can't charge $10k for a cell phone, so too I cannot price at some absurd level of the market - but when people see my place compared to another place, the choice is clear.

Sometimes they might just be kind enough to give you the opportunity to prove your allegation or face the consequences for raising a false allegation.One last note, I am done with this and engaging with this you, Joe.To the original starter of this thread, my apologies for my part in this going off topic.
