I didn't realize that was a thing among real estate investors but I'm guessing it's because average Americans have very little savings and they want the peace of mind knowing their family will be taken care of when they're gone.

Given the residential mortgage market has over 1 million people who are still delinquent, more and more Americans are quitting their jobs, and the coronavirus continues to impact peoples income and work.I also send letters to private mortgage holders to wholesale (flip the note) or buy it myself. 

There are several opportunities available for volunteers to gain construction experience, including:Local churches or non-profits: Many churches and non-profits have their own construction projects, or may partner with other organizations to build or renovate homes for those in need.Community service organizations: Some community service organizations, such as the Lions Club or Rotary Club, may have construction projects that volunteers can help with.Professional trade organizations: Some professional trade organizations, such as the National Association of Home Builders or the American Institute of Architects, may have opportunities for volunteers to gain construction experience through community service projects.Apprenticeships: Some companies and organizations offer apprenticeship programs that allow individuals to learn a trade and gain hands-on experience in construction.

As others have said, you could be in very hot water because you absolutely cannot deny someone who has a service animal, it violates the americans with disabilities act and this guy could also argue that you discriminated against him being a veteran.
