I avoid buying there and in other anti business/landlord regulation areas.

After getting scammed out of state few years back, a bit afraid to take the wrong turn after working so hard to become liquid again.

I never thought that San Diego would have such an anti LL regulation.  

If it’s 5 percent or lower it’s likely a scam

As for being anti-human.... ugh, really.

The last time I used CraigsList and Postlets, my prospects and I were seriously scammed--one prospective tenant almost transferred money to this guy who said he owned MY house and was offering it for rent cheaper than I was.

This has gone to court in my area, and granted, it never came out until some investor squeeled and cried, but the company/investor/ scam artist, was nailed every time.I think sending an invitation to a group of attorneys might be a really bad idea.The regulations exempt sophisticated investors, those with a net worth of 1M or more I think is still the cutoff.

And that was the time when I was serious scammed by an unethical wholesaler and it's set my investing back years trying and sort it out.Mark Ramsey is right, the wholesaler probably had some pressure to meet a deadline, but if you were feeling that there was something more going on, or that he wasn't completely trustworthy, then he probably wasn't.Never ignore your gut.

Scams, as Jeff says.

Good luck and be careful with the financing scams out there...
