    Applying FastLane Principles to Finding Love?

    PEOPLE HOT! 
    Probably too complicated to understand so men turn the other way. No one likes to buy a product they don't understand.

    Should I Retain An Attorney to Read Contract

    PEOPLE 
    Agreed. I had my agent review the terms on coverage on the policy. Regardless I need my attorney to do the same. We mark-ed up the contract and I feel uncomfortable many paragraphs. Coincidentally on your last advice, I called the developer to tell him that we have a decent amount of redlines...

    Should I Retain An Attorney to Read Contract

    PEOPLE 
    Appreciate the response. You are absolutely right. I've done business before in previous companies with developers like this but never on my own. I forward it just now to an attorney I've had good experiences in the past to get a cost.

    Should I Retain An Attorney to Read Contract

    PEOPLE 
    I own a general contracting company (construction) and am working with a large developer to build a new fast food restaurant. I recently received the contract and have reviewed it with three of my team members. I've been in this industry for 13 years and have gone through many contracts and one...

    Hurricane Irma

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Forget the news and use Mike's Weather Page... powered by Sparks Energy! website for tracking the hurricane. It's a website created by a guy named Mike who follows weather patterns as a hobby. He consolidates all the models and forecasts. The news and their website articles are based on one...

    Man you have a lot of things going on. Get a property manager. Your experience is too expensive to take a job as a property manager.

    Billionaires Explaining To You Why A College Degree Is Useless

    OFF-TOPIC 
    To me College/University isn't worth much unless it's required for a license. If I said College/University was all garbage, I would be lying to you. One of the most important business relationships I have is with someone I met and collaborated with while doing our graduate degrees. I was...

    Hurricane Irma

    OFF-TOPIC 
    I evacuated to New Orleans then began driving back down as it passed. Since 7 am that Monday morning I began working and haven't stopped. I am looking to expand my crew to the Keys and the West Coast. These hurricanes suck but they are good for me as I own a construction company.

    How would a 22 year old with no money and connections enter the world of real estate?

    HOT! 
    Most broker's who have become developers don't understand the development process outside of buying and selling. Many times they'll just do an eloquent tap dance while they suck the funds.

    Cool. Good job on leveraging over 65% for the construction loan. Don't see that down here.

    Advice needed for leasing a commercial building

    REAL ESTATE 
    I ask because I wonder if some of the owners may not want you altering the space then moving out a year or two later. On another note, make sure to get the place looked at thoroughly. Air conditioning and electrical requirements for your expansion, etc. Take a look for any water damage if it...
