Without proper strengthening, these vulnerable buildings may be subjected to structural failure during and/or after an earthquake.

@Jay HinrichsFollowing up on your comment about syndication failures...I've only been looking at syndications about two years now, but every offering I see is at least 50-100 pages, and I swear that half of it is disclaimer language warning a potential investor of virtually everything that could possibly go wrong on the deal, to the point where no sane person would ever choose to invest in it.

Those who are persistent, follow up with me often, and tell me what steps they have taken or failures they have had get my hep or better yet, partnership.Good luck and get out there!

Does the test set you up for failure like the practice exams seem to do?

Crossing fingers on sewer before septic failure!

Most folks have this.. but many who were in RE in 08 did not make it through with out some bumps and bruises I by the GRACE of GOD made it through .. and it was dog tough but now I am in a pretty neat situation.So Anthony as @Stephanie Potter staed the only thing I see wonky is the 2,800... but a 24 month loan with only 4 points Is very good.. but of course if you have to go 24 months on a fix and flip then its generally an utter failure

This was due to a failure in communication on our part. 

2- can you pick yourself up after a public failure?

Your just heading for failure that way because a few capex items or a bad property manager will kill that quickly.So if I were you I'd go slow buy a better quality house or quadplex, hold it for awhile and learn and then continue to build on that over time.If you really want to try going quicker than that you'd need a riskier strategy such as flipping.

I know wholesaling can be done without help from a mentor, but it is a much harder journey filled with lesson after lesson (I say "lesson" because I don't like the word failure).
