Sorry to hear of the difficulties, hope you can get them resolved.

Thanks for your input Paul - my idea of running low isn’t like most - i do have a rainy day fund to at least cover me for several months, not including what workers comp/disability still pays, and 5 weeks of paid vacation I’ll be taking once I’m discharged and able to return to work - also have part time option to focus more on my real estate Venture - it’s more about funding the business without having to many or any investors having skin in the game 

If you don’t have your own skin in the game - you’ll lose the house.After foreclosure you won’t buy for 7-8 years and get to rent.Landlords protect themselves against unstable people: credit, income, background etc.Lenders won’t care if you were underpaid or not: they will take your average income for the last two years and qualify how much of a house you can buy.When you’re a landlord yourself, you’ll understand requirements.

Man am I glad I didn’t throw $2,500 at that (again, I’m not 100% certain if I remember the price correctly; could have been $1,500).My VA is very savvy when it comes to CRM and data management, but she had difficulty with ongoing glitches in the system, routinely canceled Q&A training calls (sometimes without even being notified that the trainings were not going on as scheduled), and a customer service team that would oftentimes not follow through with expectations they had set.

I can say from the point of view of a conservative investor, I personally find the offerings un-competitive (very low skin in the game, comparatively very little sponsor experience, higher leverage, much higher fees etc.) compared with accredited offerings.

You have no skin in the game with a phone call.

Hey Jim,I am not a wholesaler myself, but the difficulties that you cite are the very reasons that I do not mind paying one of them a reasonable fee for finding houses for me. 

I’ve carried 22’ LVL beams in the back of my Subaru Impreza..Now I'm impressed ... but knowing the weight of a 22ft beam & the difficulty tying one down it's tough to image how you did it???

They have more skin in the game then you do.Make sure you get clear title.
