Goodluck buddy!

Sued my buddy and won over 75k.

But I was able to refer 2 buddies to them, and they've been much happier with GC than with Elite.

They are your tenants, not your buddies and you are running a business. 

A buddy just closed on 242 units while deployed.

A buddy was laid off from the auto industry is getting brick duplexes for 6K close to 1K a month cashflow.Check out the Start Here page http://www.biggerpockets.com/starthereCheck out BiggerPockets Ultimate Beginner's Guide - A fantastic free book that walks through many of the key topics of real estate investing.Check out the free BiggerPockets Podcast - A weekly podcast with interviews and a ton of great advice.

Long story short, I felt the paralysis by analysis, was on the sidelines for far too long, and had given up hope.Just then, early this year in January, one of my buddies shared this deal with me, a Lennar community in Seguin, Texas, in a great school district, brand new construction at a very decent price point.

David and his buddies at Hard Equity Financing took my money and 3 weeks later told me the value wasn't there.Keep in mind, this was after they fell of the face of the earth for three weeks with no communication.

Let me know your thoughts on this matter.So i have a buddy who had a similar situation where he had a women who was getting out of a divorce and her credit was terrible (something about the husband maxing out credit cards and taking out tons of loans in her name prior to divorce) but she had enough to pay for the entire year in cash.

The first contractor was actually a Home Advisory contractor my buddy and I called on to do some punch list items to finish up a basement reno that we personally did.
