I like how we are still looking to move forward with our lives when when the axe drops, and the horses run free.I am going on the assumption that everyone I talk to, is hammered in the media frenzy and still thinking that the talking heads on TV or your favorite FB type outlet have any clue at all.

Engelo Rumora WTF is wrong with this investor?
26 February 2024 | 32 replies
Happened too many times for first 3-4 years.There is no risk of loosing the "deposit" either and it's just a bit of skin in the game even tho the skin is always yours to keep heheCovered all angles mate and made this as fool proof as possible but still enough to make folks "jump" through hoops to see who is legit and who isn't.As Chris mentioned, 90% of investors we don't end up working with and even when many commit to the deposit, I refund many times as I don't feel a good fit.Even with such stringent criteria, we still get mud thrown on us here on BP as some folks slip through the cracks.I could only imagine if we took on everyone and just focused on pushing sales.I can sell a TV to a blind man and ice to an eskimo.

But my tenants are pipefitters (they can change a hot water tank), boilermakers (can change a hot water tank with their eyes closed), electricians (can replace a fuse box with a breaker box), electrical crews (can wire a 2 story house for cable tv), scaffold builders (can trim a tree with a pole saw), welders (can replace the factory exhaust with a custom stainless steel exhaust on a riding mower), construction foreman (can add a bathroom counter and vanity).
