Prevention and screening usually protect owners more than chasing judgments later.A lease reduces risk, but clear processes and documentation are what usually determine how things hold up when tested.

Then decide: is it worth spending 00-1500 in legal fees to chase a contractor who's already proven he won't deliver?

Chasing yield is the absolute stupidest of strategies and how investors go broke.

I recently switched to Chase because I remembered they included the info, but of course there was no way to check and no CS person could say!

Chase, thank you kindly for the response.

One thing I’ve noticed working with investors is the ones who seem the least stressed aren’t always chasing the lowest rate.

I continue to chase highly desired school districts.

If there are any 5 to 12 unit sales nearby, those can actually be more useful than forcing a bad fourplex comp, and I’ll also check what similar units are leasing for right now to make sure the rent story is real.This is where having someone pull the metrics fast helps a lot so you don’t burn weeks chasing a deal that never penciled.

For note investors that manage their own resolutions, maintain pricing discipline, and focus on investor-backed loans, this year offers some of the best forward-looking yield opportunities since 2017-2019.But this is not a market to chase.

Santo, you're right that consistent seller relationships beat chasing MLS listings right now.
