Doing it this way means you will always stay in the game...and, you can recover from lost money, as long as you bail out of losing deals, since it isn't your money you're losing.It's like playing poker.  

I have a great command of the process involved with construction and project management of a successful project.I was told by some I admire that I constantly meet with about doing investing that I reminded him of someone how is sitting on the sitting line in the stands and dreaming of getting into the game( real estate investing) but never do it.  

Some people absolutely need to sell their home, while some can take their time.Usually the price will dictate the immediate sales goal, in my inexperienced opinion, but you never know -- the sale price is a lot like Poker.

They are probably just trying to play poker and see if he will pay the money, but I'm not a attorney, and this is not legal advice.

In their mind, it is like asking what hand they are holding at the poker table.

Just like in poker, play at the stakes that your bankroll can support. 

Sell and move forward.REI is much like Poker, with the most important rule being "stay in the game". 

SOunds like you're right, they are targeting you based on the income and they want some of it.If they are low on funds, I'd make sure they knew that a legal battle was on the way, play some poker, but if you threaten legal action you better follow through.

It goes back to the old saying "if you are at a poker table and you don't see a sucker, it's you."

We are forced to make decisions with incomplete data all the time, not unlike, poker or BJ.
