There is another California law that applies to any company that offers advice or assistance to consumers in credit related transactions – called CSO’s – for unsecured or secured loans.

Has anyone secured equity from a hedge fund?

For example, significant damage done by tenants in excess of the security deposit (often thousands of dollars), is an expense that may only occur once in a many years.

The shows make it sound soooo easy that any fool with some dough and credit thinks s/he can jump right into a flip, splash on some fresh paint and add shiney drawer pulls and make a fortune.I get bid out by these fools regularly and then watch those properties languish on the market for months at a time.

Banks are for "regular" people (AKA retail buyers)

Or, some sort of personal loan or a loan secured by some other collateral. 10% would be very good on a fix and flip loan based on ARV.

Your goal should be to seek tenants that have a history and reasonable expectation of stable, steady income so they can pay their bills regularly each month.

Hopefully a quick judgement from a Texas court and a lien on the property to secure the judgement might be the best way to see my deposit again from these guys.

Several problems have occured to get where we are today, needless to say we still have the house on the market.Yesterday I received a call from my agent telling me that there is a couple, he is in the airforce, they are wanting to rent our house for 6 months while he is out on tour and then when he gets back they will use a VA loan to buy the house for the full listing price.I am not a mortgage specialist, but from what I was told through our agent is that after he gets back from this tour, he will then reconnect with his regular full time job, and will acquire a VA loan which supposedly he is already pre-qualified for.I have not done any lease options, but I have wanted to start looking into them, but wasn't prepared to do so with this house.

Fine, we can start conducting regular meetings & keeping minutes, but (& I realize this may not be completely kosher) is there some easy way to create "old" minutes?
