And then you have BP and an army of experienced investors happy to answer your question or poke holes in your deal before you pull the trigger..Be honest with yourself, are you looking for moral support?

So many liabilities there, also many moral concerns.

@Jennifer Roussel not smart to work with people you may not like. work with people with good character, morals, ethics, etc.

Yes, there's a place in the world for moral support, but there are far fewer people talking you off the ledge with sound advice than there are dreamers who are telling you "Oh yeah, those things sticking out of your shoulders look like wings to me - jump!"

Moral of the story?

I know that there's the topic of the ethics that always pops up, and the loan-to-own lender mentality for some...I wasn't jumping into this post to weigh in on the morality piece or the intentions of the person doing the L/Os.

Cynical and morally I have real problem with investors angling to profit from destruction of families and society.  

When you make statements like: "Our “moral code” is different than yours because yours has a strict guideline dictated by law."  

Based on our research they had around 30 units under management all in foreclosure including a $10M+ property going to auction for 50%.So moral of the story, do not believe everything you read on the internet. 

Therefore, implicit government backing, as they did in 2008, may need to be part of their return to independence, albeit it with limitations to prevent moral hazard risk.
