A true local hard money lender should be able to disburse funds in a matter of a few days. 

A true landlord is there during maintenance because they are the ones doing it. 

@Freeman Schultz that is true but if you pull money out, you can put it into another property.

Is it really true?

Everything mentioned so far is true.

The same is true with real estate investing.

Property management is a true passion of mine.

But I definitely get what you’re saying by it sounds to good to be true 

Primer paint is normally white, but you can have your paint guys actually mix it to a closer shade to the color you want, to really make that cocoa brown or whatever really pop and show that true color well!

the prior comment about closing earlier to middle about hte 45 day until debt is due is true, but that's because you've already pre-paid it...This is real estate investing.
