most HML that are bigger players will vette you just like a bank.. if not tax returns HUDS showing your last 20 to 30 deals..

Best place to start is to meet the players!

Are most of these people game players, deceiving sellers, etc?

All investors need to get to know their market and the players in that market.

Most importantly you need to convey confidence and assurance you are a player and not just wasting their time.

This is not the only thing happening in or around Greensboro, as almost all cities in Triad benefit when big players move to any of them.

If it's a desirable piece of land then the developer will not lot it go for cheap.I do commercial all day long and I am a developer myself.Check if the developer is a big player nationally or a local guy. 

I would never go with an eviction, because they know the game now and all the players and they know that, at the end of the day, they get to live for free for several months.
