I've been on this platform for many years and, over the years, I've seen new members linked or part to Mexican real estate agencies posting educational content about investing in Mexico out of the blue shortly after becoming new members and then disappear as they realized that their efforts wasn't giving them the amount of business they were hoping for.

Quote from @Joel Oh: Your business must make money day 1.It is so much more difficult to fix the model that is not making money than starting a new business that makes money day 1. 

Hard money is a type of business loan for non-owner occupying investors.

Your taxes are none of the ex wife's business and this would seem to address your concerns.I would also put her on notice that future requests for financial discovery will be two-way and if a discrepancy is seen in the other direction you will seek support from her.

Then hands me her business card, "call me, I can help you."

Just don't forget that this is a cashflow business more than an investment.

I expect this will draw more business to this area. 

@Jeremy H.there is no need to self manage for the passive investor looking for a fixed NNN return in the 15%+ range.Smart business owners and retirees looking to diversify their investment portfolio are not looking to run a hospitality business. 

Thats why you see very few HML that were in business prior to 2010 to 2011..
