At this point, it's usually emotions and/or rationalizations of some miracle save from a future event we have no control over, that tells us to stick it out. 

Things were getting bogged down because we just couldn't quite get a feel for the out-of-state properties and as a result, there was a lot of talking and rationalizing, but the inability to pull the trigger.  

Rationalizations don't balance out problems.  

I don't think any rational human being is expecting smart decisions to come from the Minneapolis government.

Let rates come down, it's actually going to cause a supply rationalization.

These guys revenue came  from making the take out loan for my BRRR loan.2. these leads were given over to an LA middle man ( like you are)3.

Let me explain my thoughts...The reason I buy communities and the reason I deal with Berkadia on my debt instead of a local bank is that both the asset and the process are more institutional, rational, and efficient.

Cut the middle man and go straight to the source.  

I just need my lenders to go with me and have somewhat rational terms. 

and there has to be full disclosure to the seller of the middle man profits.. this leads to many deals simply not happening
