It probably makes it even harder the next go round for the next invester that has integrity .

There are plenty of professionals and amateurs in every profession with varying degrees of integrity, there is just no barrier to entry into the field of wholesaling whereas becoming a real estate agent has licensing and reporting to a broker to encourage integrity.

Here's a suggestion - take your loss like a man, live and do your business with some integrity.

Integrity is always key.

You need desire, integrity, sustainability, and a host of other qualities to be the best.

You should look at ipn.com - no monthly fee and it does not integrate with the new version of QuickBooks.

Credit cards (more than one, fewer than five) used wisely should be an integral component of a responsible personal financial management plan.

I would love to integrate real estate investing with community living situations! 

You should be able to easily see the information on the online application.This is standard with most services that have an online application integrated with a screening service.Some services are screening only, where you would need the tenants information from another source.However to manually pull a credit report you would likely need to go through a on-site inspection.  

I'm not sure taking a few classes at the local community college and passing a simple test (forgive me, I'm a licensed engineer) is going to transform someone into a bastion of integrity and honor.Of course I don't think it is ok for someone to take advantage of an old person.
