With covid, alot of groups went dark for a while but they are starting to get back in the swing of things.

They were drinking, smoking marjuana, etc.. 

So if you have a house that's nicely fixed up, well lit, tidy, and furnished, it will probably appraiser higher than the exact same house that is dark and dusty and gross.

Almost immediately the tenant in the basement started complaining about noise from thier unpacking, her cat and dog making noises, and marijuana smoke (which she has for medical purposes).

So HML realized that by simply shifting the terminology of what they called themselves from one that causes a visceral reaction, to one that makes you think of your rich uncle smoking a pipe on the front porch and handing out all the cheap, abundant cash he has... well they could change the way the public perceives them.- Private Lender "PL": Historically speaking PL was actually today's definition of private money, I'll cover that in a minute. 

@Natalie Schanne Is also correct, OP likely did benefit from the wholesalers as he likely got a smoking deal out of the fact that the sellers were desperate to closeAlso Natalie to your last point, that's all about follow up!

Many real estate syndicators are concerned about their ability to raise equity for deals during the darkness we are faced today with the ultimate definition of a black swan event.

You are right ...I  should try not to get upset over things and  stay calm ....try to compare with more important things in my life....It isn't easy bc I felt scammed ( No monthly pet fee or pet security deposit on ESA animals),cheated....But there will be an end to the lease ..just that its not here soon enough....My main concern is really smoking...I hope they don't smoke in my house! 

Written into the signed Lease Agreement is a "Non-Smoking" policy which prohibits smoking inside the residence at any time.Issue: Recently my girlfriend and I noticed a marijuana smell in the mornings once we get up.

Some days I work until dark, then often grab a burger at a drive through on the ride home, then I'm taking care of a kid and 3 dogs for the evening, I'm a single parent with some custody of a 14 year old girl.
