UNLESS, you’ve got a big *** house and the smoke was not confined to a small area.If anything, I'm MORE sensitive to smoke because of my smoking past. 

Unlike some folks who are so sensitive they private message others to not be apart of their threads cause their feelings are hurt.

They are not outright scams and people do some deals but you almost certainly would have been better off saving the money and profits and doing it yourself.They call the up front fee your "skin in the game". 

@Alexandra Joy I think the fact that you’re also the landlord may make you more sensitive to the request.

A scammer might call you and tell you that they have information for you but they need to confirm your identity first then ask for sensitive info.9.

If you don't already own a home yourself, I always suggest house hacking as this gets some skin in the game, but also allows you to learn hands-on and offset your mortgage payments.

I'm very conservative and want conservative leverage percentages, long-term fixed rate loans, high skin in the game and sponsor that has experienced at least one full real estate cycle and lost little to no investor money.

Hi @Daniel Dadzie.Our company is very sensitive to spam and advertisements.

I think you are on the right track however its going to be necessary for you to have some "skin in the game" sooner rather than later - while it can be appealing and seemingly possible to build a significant real estate portfolio with all of "OPM" the reality is you are probably going to need to have some equity in these properties - 20% or so down from your own funds to keep building. 

Needed to get my skin in the game and found a great opportunity with a wholesale deal and had a good visible gap between our buying price and the value of the home so I interested me to this deal because of the way that me and the team would be able to learn and handle these opportunities in the deal to maximize ROI and asset lifespan of performance.
