He then said why don't we get together on my day off so I could see his car collection and then we will go out on his "boat" to have lunch and discuss real estate investing.

Hi Greg,I am in a similar boat here.

H gave us no reason NOT too-he assured us that the carpets would be professional cleaned, toilet replaced, deck power washed,screens repaired and that we could paint to our liking, he even offered to pay for some of the paint.He as well said we could pay the security depo in payments, and no need to pay rent until we actually moved in after painting.We signed the lease still being led on that all this was the case and he even said "let me know how much paint you will need and I will get it for you or save your receipt if you buy it " as I signed the dotted line.SO We get a call that the home is ready and that all we have to pay is the depo up front(no longer a payment option) and we can pay rent once we get moved in.

I'm in the same boat, working a 9-5  in the city but would love to meet more like minded people.

The house is about 8,000 sq ft on a river with a pool, hot tub and boat dock.

I currently in the same boat as you Kevin, I'm awaiting commitment from my lender on a duplex.
