DISCLAIMER: I *DID* share phone numbers with the people I thought would have the greatest chance of success due to their emotional need (they had a strong 'why do it') and it was not going to emotionally scar them if it failed miserably.

It is however an introduction where you will be given the chance to sign up for a 15k mentorship program (25k if you want the deluxe).  

Also always follow up, even if at first they are dead set against your offer, make a point to follow up with them in few days or weeks or so because if they really are motivated and you had a good offer at first chances are that when other people either don't come knocking or come in with lower prices they'll warm up to the idea of you buying the house. 

My agent believes we would stand a good chance of getting sizable compensation to fix the plumbing problems at mediation level, without going to court.My agent has generously offered to represent me at mediation as I live out of state and the man is on genius level and really knows his stuff.

This month is just a networking meeting, but that can give you more of a chance to connect with people so not a bad thing at all (And I think she is providing some free appetizers. :) ).As I'm sure you know you gave a bit of a range in the quality and desirability of areas, as well as long term development plays, but they all have merit.  

If your property went up in value, chances are so did the one you might want to buy...so that equity you think you have may not be there since your next house may suck it up.Joe VilleneuveREcapSystemA2REIC

My CPA (tbn) - will have a chance to sort/assign/correct things during tax prep.

They also probably offset the cost of the warranty by charging a significant premium for the work they did to get this note re-performing.Their warranty also states that they can replace your note with an equivalent note so if one fails and they don't want or have the money to give you your principal back they can just give you another note and buy themselves more time.Their business is also growing at a fast pace and they are betting the growth will offset any losses(low chance of them losing though after the premium, low volume of performing notes, and ability to replace notes) and the warranty helps grow it faster.This is how their warranty makes sense to me.
