Right now, you are thinking of yourself and how to get you ahead and not stepping back and looking holistically at the process.

Do you have any properties yet, or are you still looking to find the first one?

My partner is an experienced home builder with 40 years of experience, however we recently moved to TN and he is not interested in getting his TN GC license.

Hi I hope you all are doing wellI am looking to invest around the Lindell Bvld area but looking at the crime map it seems like it's not safe and looking at rentals there are too many rentals available leading to a saturated market.

Also paging @Garrett Brown the STR specialist to see if he has any insight to this area or advice on how to get to one of the top STRs in your neck of the woods. 

This is what I would be doing and disclosing to the people looking to sue. 

This is an example of someone violating law to make more money, and it could eventually come back to bite them.

Are you hiring a GC or planning to GC on your own?
