So if you find one whose willing to operate in truth, honesty and integrity then they will not have a problem with the following (13) Rules of Engagement I have created when dealing with PMLs.1-I require that we transact all business using a local Title Company of my choosing, using their resources (i.e. title search etc), their loan servicing capabilities and an attorney of my choosing to draw up contracts. 

I currently work as a semi-truck driver doing long-haul loads.

Being that your competition has the gate, it seems that is the standard to operate at.

@Yakir Sheli Galveston is still loaded with flip potentials, and with the STR boom there are a lot of buyers calling about the island.

Footingshelp to spread the load across the ground and prevent sinking and structuralmovement.

For larger multifamily, this will typically be $200k - $500k+Lender will want to see net worth equal to the size of the loan and about 10% liquidity.Every lender is slightly different, but this is what I have seen in the 1000+ units we own and operate.

Sorry for what might be a loaded question, thanks as always!

What kind of operation you running over there?!

I am currently looking in a pretty expensive market with LOADS of potential. 

You can write off operating set up costs: legal, accounting, advertising, property management with clear invoices that are easy to pull out of a box in the event of an audit.
