Hi Matt,I have 2 investors (close friends) that invested in my latest deal.  

A private money lender that has lent me hundreds of thousands since 2005 revealed something to me while we were wrapping up our latest deal this May.  

The bottom line that I see is that the property was tied up for decades by various people behaving badly, and this latest development in its history, the recent sale, appears to have had an extraordinary amount of concealed greasing of the skids just to pull it off. 

We could bring plans for our latest projects and talk about trends, finishes etc.
