Why can't it be as simple as buying a candy bar?  

Take $20 to the dollar store and buy candy cheap glasses or trinkets or whatever.  

Candy,You can partner on some deals with other investors to grow your money.

We use those to stage and no one has ever been the wiserYou can get cheap area rugs from Wal Mart and they look pretty good too.Leave out a dollar store candy bowlIf they come their with their relatives make sure to hit on the different safety aspects that make the property great.  

Maybe buy one for a dollar, and offer it to a homeless Italian person with a handful of garden seeds and a hammer and a saw (I wonder if Italy has many Homeless People who are not refugees like France has--what a Horrible problem they have in France with this.)Also it's so Odd in America with Section-8 being handed out like Candy to so many, that there are any homeless people in America.

Partial claims are already a massive problem as FHA likes to give them out like candy.

If I wanted to STR under these rules I would be Miss Popularity getting on the Board and giving out candy.

One I agree with the original poster is in this industry there are just too many stories where companies or people that suppose to do DD, don't do anything.I don't think most people have anything to worry about.The likeliest candidates for lawsuits are 1. those teaching wholesalers, and 2. those that promote using Subject To and Creative Financing as though it's Willy Wonka's candy store.Then the gurus come on Bigger Pockets and do a promo or two to grow their following.

@Cenddie Alaban I was buying like a kid in a candy store when we were in GFC so I think the media showing people losing houses was not for the reasons many thought.

Insurance is kind of like cotton candy, it looks good until you want it then it compresses to a tiny unrecognizable blob.
