Glad to be a member, surprised it took me this long to be a member.  

I am unsure what type of investing you wish to do, but as a small landlord, I can say the unexpected happens.  

I see folks liked your post, no surprise here.I don't disagree with you, as long as they have a good deal for you, you don't mind paying for it.What is the deal is when the wholesaler starts digging further into an owner's equity through unethical or illegal tactics to pad their pocket for much more than they brought to the table or more than they are really worth as a facilitator to a transaction. 

Well it´s a dreary day here in normally-sunny-Seville, so I figured I´d drop in and share our recent surprising experience leasing our primary residence.

If he doesn't, no surprise here cuz you already looking at the whole thing from an elevated position.

Don't be surprised if the tenants now think of all kinds of groovy ways for both of you to make money.

And it can surprise you, Jeff.

I've been working as a tech sales rep since 2007 in the San Francisco area (huge surprise).

The next property I used the credit on was also shut down because of other requirements that "pop up" unexpectedly in order for them not to lend.I have asked several times for a refund of my money and all they have offered was an additional year's subscription.

I'm not surprised you are hooked, it has a wealth of knowledge and information for every type of investor.
