Most people lack all three simultaneously, and if you have hustle + one you're not going to be without the third for long.

I would send an email to your lawyer and let them know due to the lack of response, you no longer require their services, do not send a lease, and do not send a bill as you did not receive the product you were looking for in the timeframe you needed it, and did not receive any helpful response either.That at least gives you some ground to stand on if they do send you a bill.

I get with the higher purchase price, you won't be doing as many renos, but you need to see how that affects the ARV to compare apples to apples.

There is a ton of risk from inaction (regret, unmet goals, lack of fulfillment, less growth, less knowledge).

many I see post on BP about their lack of success raising funding  usually relates back to their idea that they are the prime piece of the puzzle and the investors should be happy with the return they are offering.. this may be true when your grant cardone.. but starting out you have to honor the money no doubt. 

many turn key homes are bought in as is condition.. and then 15 to 40k is put into them to bring them up to turn key condition.. you maybe seeing properties that are in need of full rehab.have to compare apples to apples.

@Martin NealIf it was just them paying a few days late I think it wouldn’t be too bad (assuming they are also paying the late fee), but the lying and lack of communication to me is a bigger issue that would have me looking for a new tenant.

I also think or my impression is that the seller has you by the B@_Ls  :) Because he can smell the lack of confidence ( and people tend to smell that easy.

If this lacks clarity, please excuse, and ask what you need to know.

Obviously there is no true solution to currently to weed out all the bad apples ahead of time.
