Sorry, I couldn't resist. 

You'll find resistance and negativity all the way to the bank. :-)   It comes from agents (no offense), lenders, sellers, tenants, relatives, co workers, contractors, strangers       Overcoming all that is part of the fun and satisfaction.  

I couldn't resist adding in the line "our respective names are spelled and pronounced entirely differently."

There is quite a bit of resistance by traditional investors to all CFing, IPOs are no different.  

It is my opinion that the town should approve a small apartment development that will meet their housing needs with little resistance.

And brokers that use that old formWhen done correctly, these “deals” are not illegal.I’d say they are more for ‘advanced’ REI and certainly carry some risk when the deal goes bad.From what I see, the problems are investors are not following every requirement in NCGS Ch47G, and/or their contract for leasehold interest is flawed, and/or they lose their buyer.So if you connect with a homeowner that is looking to sell their property and has already contracted with a broker, do you typically stray away from those deals because they might resist these more “creative” approaches?

You will get a lot less resistance with this approach. 

I am tech resistant.

It is far better to wait a little while to start and follow the path of least resistance.

:)I said I wouldn't post again, but how can I resist responding to the best post ever on BP.
