Quotables
“The people who put less down are actually getting more returns from their capital because they’re investing less of it. Their capital is working harder for them.”
“If we can help them build up the property so they have something to sell and put some money back in or lose less money, heaven forbid, that’s better than enforcing on something that’s half-built and demolished day 1.”
“The presence of a contract does not make a good deal. A good deal makes a good deal.”
