I went back about 2 months later to get funding on a 2nd property I found and apparently they got cold feet as I was "new".I showed them my resume... running Government programs up to $50,000,000... team sizes of 120 engineers... full profit and loss responsibility... 3 college degrees including an MBA... but somehow they believe being a landlord on a property that is generated rents in excess of 4 times the P&I is going to be more challenging?

Or maybe it is still burning down.Give me the address of that Animal House.
