I know plenty of millionaire "investors" building homes, fix/flipping etc, using exploited labor (as in paying below legal market wages, legal as in the wages they would have to pay for a legal worker with overhead, taxes, insurance etc), breaking all types of laws, putting the burden on taxpayers, and they walk around like they are perfect and beyond reproach. the arrogance is amazing yet they do not see their own hypocrisy.

It always amazes me when people come to me with this philosophy though.

But I, for one, am amazed that anyone would be willing to transact through Ebay for a quarter million.

I am always amazed that if you are serious about real estate investing, you do not have a Business Card for contact information.  

Add in the number of 2nd lien investors who are moving to the "dark side" of 1st's and you be amazed.  2nd's are currently way overpriced due to the lack of inventory and increased demand.  

WOW, Thanks so much everyone, this is pretty amazing.

It's amazing how contracts mean nothing to them...You may be allowed to continue charging them rent through the expiration date whether they live there or not as long as you make reasonable efforts to find a new tenant.  

In Louisville, I have yet to meet a closing attorney or title company that has not been amazing to work with.

If I can literally go downtown to the courthouse for free, that would be amazing and perfect! 

The property is quite good in terms of all the research I put into it so once I take a look at everything, I realize that I would probably not be in the top of the list of ideal offers but it was an amazing experience to go through the process.
