You lose if that happens, even if you end up winning any judgment.

So I'm doing a lot of research regarding buying notes, haven't bought one yet, but it looks like it could be a bit of fun.I was checking out some loans on various websites (I'm sure these aren't great deals, same with finding house on websites) as a way to familiarize myself with different aspects of loans, I figured I'd stick to performing loans, could just hold for a decent return, or maybe tweak them a bit and create a little win-win situation.Then I'm seeing these heavily discounted 1st lien NPN's, now I can see a great opportunity in modifying these, allowing someone who wants to to remain in their house for a lower monthly, and since the note is heavily discounted creating some nice cash flow for my money.

It's win/win/win.

I see this as a win/win/win situation.  

Petersburg is not exactly known for their winning school system.

Think you main issue these days will be competition for dwindling number of renters due to the drawdown, but on hte plus side since deplyments are going down you should, emphasize should, be able to keep renter there 2-3 years for their length of tour at Drum.

I did however send a follow up email explaining that I am wanting to create win-win situations for the both of us along with helping out if possible with whatever the issue is or may be.

Then, the only really important thing is to know your strike price and not get caught up in the heat of the moment and try to "win".

I really want to emphasize this point.
