We had a security system installed into the home due to unsavory individuals looking to find some tools at a discount.

For obvious reasons you wouldn't want to deal with an individual who is attempting to circumvent these laws & regulations.

Finally deciding (after like the fifth webinar) to get off my butt and get my first property.Hoping to add to my team and build a solid network of realtors, contractors, future partners and like-minded individuals here. 

For future reference, you should have a clause in the original contract stating something along the lines of canceling that 'as is' bit or the seller allows the buyer to assign this contract and allows the assignees to do any due diligence before entering into a binding contract, etc.

As private lenders, we prefer this as it gives us more comfort that the purpose of the transaction is business purpose and we are not providing a loan for an individual's primary residence.  

What is currently happening right now is there are new investors entering into the note space who are buying them at too high of a price, thus leaving themselves open to greater risk.
