By having to stop and think about not only what I did but how I did it and what could be improved upon improves my business as well.

That’s exactly what I was thinking like what’s stopping him from going on the MLS himself.

If you had a friend type relationship with a tenant would it be easier or harder to evict them if they stop paying rent?

I have borrowers come to me every day who overlook doing this No Brainer, simple paper credit.Example:   Property Listed at $100,000Negotiate at sales price of $90,000?

The police came after they were there with me for over 5 months and broke down my door ( since I lived 30 minutes away and they just couldn't wait, although the tenants were not home) they stopped paying rent after 3 months, and changed cell phones regularly.  

What are some things that you would recommend saying in order to not offend the owner by saying I stopped because your home looks vacant.

Where the owner somehow managed to borrow twice the market value of the home at the time of the loan.

Run away from this deal stop trying to justify wasting money.

There are plenty of others.If you want to borrow for 8%, that can take a more personal connection and some time.

Look at everything through the lens of "what will stop me from building after I close on the land?"
