Has someone in particular blocked you recently, or is this just a response to the discussion?
No my loans were each with different and seperate companies which I was a owner (and each company had different owners though i was a main one in all of them).
My personal portfolio has always been pretty small as im not a landlord, I use those properties when I have them. I am just well aware of the terms ont hema nd what I can do.
It was my friends whom I asked that tend to have large portfolios and act directly as landlords in some cases.
@retrohondajunki Dont think for a second they are going after only rich people... The middle class and poor cheat on their taxes collectively more so than than the rich (this should be obvious when you consider how common working "under the table" is)... They will be getting this money out of everyone, not just the rich.
Not saying thats a bad thing, pay what your owed.
Only thing I can think of that is similar to what they spoke about is primary residence mortgages (your first mortgage you get which you specifically claim will be for your primary residence). Those sometimes have reduced rates and terms on the condition that you cant rent it out (must be your primary residence).
But that has nothing to do with commercial properties and sotrefronts.
I'd rather not get into my personal wealth, at least not down to dollars and cents.. but not massive.. Usually at any time I've had 1-3 properties I had to manage for commercial purposes. While I do not act as the landlord for others, and it has been to support my own business I am well aware of what I am allowed to do with those properties and know that legally I can rent them to whoever I want since I am the morgage owner.
That said I do work very closesly with some close friends who are investors and they own quite large commercial properties (ine a few cases they own a high rise or two) and none of them seemed to be aware of any think like this either with any mortgages they have.
I suspect there is some truth to the article, which is why I asked and was so confused... maybe its regional to a certain state or set of states, or maybe its a practice that happens but under different circumstances that doesnt line up ... I dunno, I'd be curious to see where the reality is.
Either way we are both really confused here due to that contradiction and I dont have an answer or explanation as to what is going on. Would seem like a weird thing for an article to lie about...
Thats interesting, and odd... .Are they claiming the amish make it or something?
Lancaster, at least when i was there which has been a while, never had anything like this. Very authentic, great place to visit, meet some amish, and support them.
Actually despite the phrase being repeates as you just said it that is not the actual wording in the bible. This is the wording from the bible:
Whoever spares the rod hates their children,
but the one who loves their children is careful to discipline them.
@freemo @niclas @realcaseyrollins @AmpBenzScientist ah, it's how psychological torture is called in german because you don't get your hands dirty. guess that one doesn't translate :)
why i say this is that many ideas still pushed in one form or another are rooted in people like johanna haarer (i'm sure there are equivalents around the globe):
> In 1934 one of the most powerful publishing houses of that period released a guidebook by Johanna Haarer – one of the well-known women in Nazi Germany – on the topic of infant care. This book, The German Mother and her First Child, was in its tenth edition at the end of the war. It is still on the market, with changes that obscure its origin and ideology, not revealing the year of its first appearance.[32] In her critical analysis of this and another book on child-rearing by Haarer, Sigrid Chamberlain concludes that child-raising and education in Nazi Germany and the early post-war years are characterized by coldness, harshness, and indifference. She views these theories as a "seamless transition into the ideology and the institutions of the Nazi state", stating that it is "time" to deal with the fact that "the majority of those born during the Third Reich and the post-war years were released into life with early Nazi ideology, without ever realizing this fact and its possible consequences."[33] In 1977 the concept of "Black Pedagogy", introduced by sociologist Katharina Rutschky, was established, summarizing – among other concepts – the child-raising and educational methods of this period.

Two problems... 1) this never actually happens as far as I can tell, if it does its very rare. I've been asking around people in the industry, plus my own expiernces, this just isnt a thing. Many have pointed out it wouldnt even be legal in most states since you as the morgage holder can rent out your own property at any price
2) Foreclosing may in some special circumstances draw a profit but in the majority of cases foreclosing costst the lender about 20% of the cost of the property.
Wait, what amish country is that? I grew up near the largest and oldest amish communities in the USA (lancaster) and ive never seen Amish souvenirs like this. They have usually been things like quilts and furniture, or other small hand made items.
@TruthSandwich I just checked.. while you have two new reports int he last 24 hours nothing that is from that server towards you
@TruthSandwich yea could be the instance as a whole blocks you.. for all I know they could block our whole instance. It can be hard to know for sure. But it looks like a block of somekind yea.
@TruthSandwich I think the instance or the person may have you blocked... doesnt seem to be anything on our end.
@TruthSandwich looking
No it isnt, but as a business man who has bought many a property,a nd with many high end investors who have bought entire skyrises among the people I asked the fact that none of these people have ever seen anything remotely like this is very telling. At a minimum it clearly isnt as normal as the article suggests and therefore not an explanation for the phenomenon in most cases.
@drahardja Oh sorry, missed that was a joke :)
