I only spoke to George once before he died and I believe he lived in West Covina.As a military guy you should understand the definition of these terms: goals, objectives, strategy and tactics.When I was young, I was the only child among a group of friends of whom several owned or operated casinos and hotels in Las Vegas.

@Robert Burnspost the situation, I can't tell what the objective is other than closing in 2 years.TX is not LA.

There was no way to object or not pay without going to court with a collection attorney.

Yeah its not necessarily the money since it is not an expensive reimbursement, it's the principle.

Some investors still insist on investing in these apartment on the principle that the price will appreciate and the demand is higher.What is the most recommended way of investing in apartment ?

Their objection like yours is to get the deal closed because that unit he or she is receiving credit for is getting them one step closer to their coveted bonus.

They function as sort of a go-between though, which I dislike in principle as someone that generally participates as a principal.  

As far as whether your money will serve you better wholesaling, that depends on what your objectives are.

& lets be honest, the whole acting as a principle thing is a complete joke. how many "wholesalers" actually have the means to buy said property if they can not find a real "buyer"?

with the extra money we either pay toward the principle or save for another positive investment.
