It's hard to dig into the individual motivation for any particular bank unless you know who is in charge of the decision making process.

I made a decision to get into investment property last year.

Many families need to be in walking distance to a school due to circumstances.For the right tenant (ie someone who needs their child close to school) they would pay more for the proximity.Many families struggle getting their kids to and from school and want their JH kid to walk to school (or ride a bike) and get home by themselves especially if they perceive it to be safe.Here are a few ideas to gather more information to help your decision making:#1 I think speaking to a few families who have kids in the area may give you a great idea of the value they would perceive in being close to that particular school.#2 You could also observe what it is like before and after school.

She invited me in, showed me around and said if I was interested in buying it she'd give it to me for XXX (which was above market value) but I needed to decide right away, because she needed to make a few decisions (not admitting that the home was in pre-foreclosure status) oh!

I think the question was poorly worded.

(technically, they get an 8% preferred return and I get a 6% developer fee if all goes to plan, then we split any upside after that).In your situation, if you and your two buddies all put in cash, and all have some sort of management/decision making roles, you could divide the ownership and upside according to your capital contributions.

Some people just make a bad decision once in their life and then they are labeled and treated like they will forever be the scum of the earth.Just do a search for a list of felonies:Issuing a false certificate 175.40Sports bribe receiving 180.45Tampering with a sports contest in the first degree 180.51Rent gouging in the first degree 180.57Unlawful possession of a skimmer device in the first degree 190.86Promoting gambling in the first degree 225.10Possession of gambling records in the first degree 225.20Gaming fraud in the first degree 225.60Possession of unlawful gaming property in the second degree 225.75Use of unlawful gaming property 225.85Obscenity in the second degree 235.06Eavesdropping 250.05

Nothing worse is a good relationship gone south because of a poorly executed business venture.http://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/223/topics/110123-long-overdue-success-story---bp-partnership
