So if all hell broke loose, all I'm losing would be the original 20% + time + Headache + Uncalculated rehab cost, which is still somewhat a acceptable loss in my current stage in life.

Real Estate is my life, and I'm always happy to chat with other people interested in it.Feel free to post a question, or to email me directly.

Welcome to BP, @Chance BostickYou may start from the Education section; listen to the podcasts and webiners..Life is a school of learning, and we all learn one thing or the other each day...Feel free to ask any question and stay close to the forums: you will learn a ton!

Unfortunately, life just isn't that simple and real estate is highly localized.

It's just a normal way of life for many of the people here and a lot of people have no goals of even owning their own home,@Chris ReevesThank you for taking your time o input some advice.1.

I plan to be in the Real Estate Industry for the rest of my life.

Hopefully I can give back to the community by sharing my life time of construction experience, especially for New Yorkers. 

I am based out of the Tampa Bay area and have lived here my entire life.

Fear is the number one motivator or de-motivator in life.

Build your foundation before you build your house and you'll have a much easier life and deals will get done easier and quicker than always being one step behind your deal.
