It will interfere with your investment future.

Okay I understand or I see and then tell them you’ll make a note of that and you wIll be doing improvements to the property over the coarse of time in the future .

@Paul Caporali remember this game is slow and steady.As time progresses you will find other opportunities to help you towards your next if you work at it.Keep building/creating equity you can use, keep networking so you can create relationships for the future(partnerships etc).

I pre-quality the people who want to sell their notes and then I REFER them to my own network of note investors who accept referrals and who pay out referral fees.

And in the future, you may want to include a statement that says your signature is null and void after a certain amount of days; that way if they have not redeemed within a certain amount to time, you should be able to continue to make preservation improvements.This post is a little bit old, but I'd like to hear what happened in your situation.

I interviewed a property manager that was referred to me by two contacts I have.

Besides asking to speak with references, what some other ways to vet out a lender?

The 7-unit I bought as a value-add property and added about $100k in equity over the last year, so I'm not opposed to doing similar projects in the future if profitable.I know how to analyze a deal and calculate NOI when scouting properties (though admittedly these properties were acquired many years ago, before I knew much about RE investing).  

Also, start to really network with other agents, investors, etc. to both learn more about your business as well as being in the loop for future purchases!!

We could be risking not having ownership of the house in the future but she also has 2 children with me so I would have her keep the multi if we split up anyways...... is this a bad idea?
