(You waste that much time on candy crush)Seem like a lot of work?

If your tenants consistently pay on time every time year after year and take care of your property and don't make the neighbors mad, a box of candy,  or a $25 gift certificate from local grocery store is just good customer service.

Some of the success stories are even actors lol Real estate investing is honestly pretty simple.

We went from being unemployed and broke to PE firms backing us.Is Will Smith going to be the lead actor in this movie?

It has to be worked at, built like a virtuous habit over time, but I suspect anyone with enough practice can manage to wash away the stain of a monstrous act or two done in their lives from their memories like it had never been there in the first place, and continue to live their lives looking out from behind a face just like the rest of the family of man.

In addition, the complaints are reading that the non-profit used actual actors/"testers" to reach out to me on these listings to confirm what these 2 individuals were saying was true, which of course, I also replied, "Sorry, no vouchers".Now I've had to hire a lawyer who specializes in cases like this, and has actually gone up against this non-profit in the past, but with a much bigger client who owned 20+ apartment buildings, and was also openly saying "no Section 8 vouchers".

Last night I was a guest of a fellow real estate investor (and former child actor) to the world famous Magic Castle in Hollywood. 

That being said, even wholesalers will agree there are bad actors out there wholesaling.
