Last Dec was no different, i send in the money for the license, fill out info and expect a reply shortly thereafter.

., use the money made here to travel other places.There are too many potential problems that could arise that would be out of my control.That's just how I see it.

I was about to start foreclosure proceedings, until he sent me this recent money.

I certanly do , if there is no money in it , why do it ? 

If it’s that good of a deal, hard money lenders would line up to fund it.

I would be ecstatic to shadow someone on a deal, or even better, partner, so I can experience first hand how it’s done and learn everything I can, even if I don’t make any money.

That's a lot of money tied up in the home. 

If you are successful, they say it's because of all the money you make in your 'day job' and if you fail, it's because you spent all that time learning about non-financial things.

A private lender or hard money lender?

The dark side of real estate syndication that nobody talks about  That and the sponsors not doing a capital call but raising a debt fund that will have an equity position in that deal so they can continue to collect fees but now investors are further down the capital stack and more likely they will lose even more money....
