I'm going to spell out my tips and advice as well offer my investment opportunities.

HiA small suggestion:Anyway to automaticly (I know I spelled it wrong) follow a discussion that you commented on?

I participated in a few dozen notes both personally and in my retirement accounts and the way it was done I have a promissory note which spells out the terms of the loan (interest rate, length of the loan, etc.) and the deed of trust or a mortgage securing my interest. 

How would the deal be written and would it be spelled out in the contract? 

Needless to say that anyone that had purchased in the last 5 years has done well as long as they were in areas that moved up with appreciating rents and values.Unfortunately, not all of America had done that.I still have a friend of mine that bought in Bristol, CT that have not seen much value or rent appreciation although it had maintained it's consistency.The problem is that he totally missed the boat on the appreciating areas which was where he lived.Unfortunately, investing in non-appreciating areas but living and not owning in the appreciating area is a formula that spelled disaster for him.

There was another battery misdemeanor in 2012 I’ve never been arrested I have no clue about any of this I had to google misdemeanor to spell it right.

Doug I have met many mainly when I bought their home at auction because they let their kids borrow against it and blow the money.and of course in my 30 plus years of loaning HM I have seen a bunch of this activity over the years.18 months ago I had a wholesaler contact me ( which is rare because I generally wont talk to them)  but he got through to me and it was a property in Charleston SC were I build.. and the price was right .. but when I did a quick title search I saw that he had recorded a power of attorney for this lady that spelled out that he could sell the house and pay her 100k  and he was offering it to me for 196k.. so I called him on it.. and said hey there.. this lady obviously does not know what she has  the value is in the lot.. so no real up side as is unless you build a new home so for me to buy it at 196 was about market.. 

Does their syndicator follow the rules spelled out in this article: https://www.biggerpockets.com/blogs/10850/75569-ca...Best!

There really isn't a secret to what I've done, much of it is spelling out to them why you're a great candidate (your clean, you have a steady job, you take care of the unit as if it's your own home, your a good neighbor, etc).  

The correction that I made on the signed contract were mis-spell of my name.
