If I get the property under contract, I theoretically put my partners under contract as well, and if say, a situation comes up where I needed 68k, and a HML is only willing to contract for 65k, (yes, those are actual numbers in this case) I'm literally having to tell an investor that I need more money, or tell my contractor that I am short on funds to cover extra for purchase funds.Everyone I'm working with is doing me a huge favor based on a solid plan, I don't want to fall short, and literally being off on my numbers by more than 2k puts me in a position that won't look great.I guess it's just time to take this conversation to the HML and find out for myself how much of a guaranteed number I can get...Anyone have suggestions for Oregon lenders?

Conversely, I think it will take some time to play out.

It looks your buyers do have choices.I'm still curious about the garage conversion.

Had a conversation a couple of days ago with a couple of non-investors about that.

Thanks :) I find myself talking to the guest while editing the podcast because I forget I'm not in the conversation anymore!

first off, congrats to you and your wife @Jason Schaefer and glad you jump in the conversation.

I struck up a conversation with one of the landlords while at the property one day and he volunteered what he was getting out of the 5 rentals he had.

Common ducts for HVAC carries lots of sound between units (can hear and understand conversation).

My plan is to initially start with flipping, but the overall goal is to form a full scale real estate company including boutique development (flipping, condo conversions, single home building, small condo infill buildings, etc) along with a property management company for buy and hold properties.

In terms of prosecuting the case,I think it would have only made a difference if the case had been stronger from a liability standpoint such that the conversation before trial would have been how many millions had to be paid.
