The residence is a "product," in your understanding of the thing, and tossing these people out of the place they call home is "naturally" a good idea.Can you and @Austin Fruechting just maybe try for half a second to imagine that a man who was born in a stable, lived in a tiny village for most of his life learning a simple trade, wandered jobless all over the land with his followers living on the charity of others, and died penniless on a cross to be buried at the expense of a friend perhaps, just perhaps, did not particularly care about crushing it in multifamilies?

Really, what can you do to a penniless wholesaler via civil suit?

In my example of troop population being reduced, today’s great numbers may be tomorrows (almost that quickly) disaster leaving the investor with a vacancy, overhead, and penniless.

The IRS (collection arm of the empire's financial branch) apparently likes to 'target' those who 'go against the grain' of their master's servitudinal debt enslavement paradigm, so I'm not surprised that many of these guys end up 'defamed,' imprisoned and penniless, or worse!

In the old days, the barriers to entry for securities trading were high (think brokerage commissions) whereas in real estate there was this allure of the no money down "creative" deal that could transform a penniless person living under an overpass into a mogul with a yacht, big house and scores of bikini babes (yes, the marketing was mainly to a male audience back then and still for the most part today though that seems to be changing a bit). 

After they had my money, it became clear they were close to penniless.
