Better send them gentle oficial request to unblock.  

Have to break it to them gently. 

There are a LOT if twists and turns available to the lender & borrower through the process.

I just started down that twisted path....Most of the smoky ones are Mezcal.

However, January’s payment was late so I sent an email as a gentle reminder.

When you go to mill the log, the lumber can twist and come out wavy due to the tension in the log.d.  

Balancing the cash flow and the financing puzzle can be a tricky dance, but the more we share these experiences, the better we can navigate the twists and turns of real estate ventures.

We have opened walls and found wiring down with lamp cord, wiring that was simply twisted with no box or wire nuts or tape inside walls, joists that were cut almost all the way through by plumbers running piping (fairly common even today), wiring with nails through it along with burn marks (ever wonder why old homes catch fire?)

Anyone that says that you have to be dumb, make mistakes, or over leverage to get wiped out in a SFR investment just hasn’t been doing this long enough to see that this business carries risk, whether you are active or passive, smart or dumb, make good decisions or bad, over leverage or not—there are risks and you can lose money, period.And in an interesting twist that makes this case study a double lesson: this “tenant” claims to be the CEO of a real estate private equity firm.  

They are gently used or returned and resold.
