Could you convert the property to something else and still make the numbers work (probably not because the build out is very unique).  

Atlanta is a unique market to me because of the influx of people from all over the world, the busiest airport in the country, and the new markets being creating on a monthly basis.

We've gotten close with lenders of all types, but our unique business model and short operating history have always derailed us in the end. 

Each state is unique of course how they decided to implement Dodd Frank. and the Safe act.I agree with Ann  Unless you are very well cashed up and really know what your doing NEVER take a second position...

Or people with a really unique deal and they are an option of last resort.

If they did, there would be no time for sports or weather.If you want to invest your money in Detroit, that's fine.

I currently work in outside sales for another company but have started a few other companies on the side that did well but never allowed me to completely take it and run (water purification and even a sports clothing line).I found RE and love it.

Secondly, a financing contract is a unilateral contract, meaning one party must perform and the relationship is unique between those parties.

In my free time I enjoy following Chicago sports, playing the guitar, seeing live music, and spending time with my friends and family.

Actually, due to the unique and rare opportunities in Detroit, I have given consideration to investing in Detroit.
