:Proper (https://www.proper.insure/)Steadly (https://www.steadily.com/)Just curious if they actually pay?

Also, I want to have an additional income stream to my pay. 

When he went to draft up the contract he made it a Confessions of Judgement contravr in which I waive all my rights and if any of my "associates or friends" talked about him I'd have to pay half a million per offense, and he could easily claim a violation happened that never did to collect half a million dollars and I wouldn't be able to do anything about it.He consistently threatened me with legal action into trying to get me to accept that crazy contract.

because of the issues you guys are facing. now maybe these folks are paying cash to build as well ?

I am paying $39 a month to have them as a registered agent.

He mentioned they’ve had trouble paying on time lately.2) This place rents for $1,500 now, could be as high as $1,650 fixed up more but the total mortgage payment with taxes and insurance would be about $1,500-1,600.

Start working right away and you could have a well-paying job, be debt free, and own a couple investments within four years. 

Then why would you consider paying $1.3 million for this property - $70,000 over value?

Folks are fighting to pay $700k for a duplex here with market rents of $3,500.

Further, he's using an @gmail.com email address—don't get me wrong, I run my RE business through my primary @gmail accounts set up for the LLCs, but as a legitimate tax-paying lending company?
