POd said:Renting a house wouldent be so bad, but an appartment would suck. Thats how alot of medical growers get busted by the feds, they have a grow and their landlord feels entitled to call different cops until someone responds.
Sup MozMan......I guess I never saw thisun Bro........Some in depth shit on bein a better criminal fer sure.........
When I first went inside after 12 or so yrs outside , I did lease purchases on nicer homes that needed work........
Being a carpenter/builder/remodeler really helped as the owners would lease me the homes for a yr , and at the end of that yr I had the option of purchasing the home with equity already built in from my original down payment and X amount toward the purchase of said home in the monthly payments...........
While I supposedly was remodeling and upgrading the homes , I was growin my ass off , and at the end of that yr lease I tore shit down , and lease purchased another one......
Got a conventional mortgage on the first one and rented it out ta make the payments......and built equity with somebody else payin for my house while I was growin my ass off in the basement of the next one........
Never were the home`s in my name while I grew in em , so forfeiture and seizure didn`t mean dick ta me........Where I live in Hell if caught with 1 plant or 100`s wouldn`t make a difference.......
After 8-9 yrs of no worries with lease purchases , my balls got bigger and I started buyin foreclosures and fixin em up with the homes IN my name.......Can we say MORE paranoid ?............
One thing that helped me through was knowin I was a 1 man show and couldn`t snitch me out......Still kept the 1 yr per location Rule # 1 and after that yr the homes were fixed up and went on the market for sale or were rented out ........then.....on to the next one......
To stay safe you haveta be small and not make any ripples on the water when you walk across it.......LOL......I was fortunate enough ta wash my cash through depreciation on equipment and normal deductions on small construction business bullshit.....of course there were the jobs that "lost money" to "lower" taxable income ......
You`re only as successful as those yas surround yourself with......in the real world........Out here in cultivation land I trust me.........and gotta say it`s helped me sleep at night for many yrs........Loose lips sink ships , and 3 can keep a secret if 2`s dead and gone.........
Might be diff in Medville with conglomerates/collectives and employees but not round my parts.......I`m shutdown and retired for over yr and a half .......The only reason I`m spillin my guts now is to hopefully help some folks here that have good DIY skills and wanna do better for themselves.............
There are ways ta do this butchas gotta stay "small" .......
It all adds up after awhile believe me.......Equity keeps buildin and before long , yas got buncha real estate paid for and it`s payin YOU...........
I`m a broke `ol fart , but my shit`s paid for and my boy`s gonna be left well off.......
Ya`ll take care.....DHF..........
Those are the two keys to renting IMO. Find (you don't have to just "luck into") an out of town landlord, and pay in advance.The landlord lives in fucking Minnesota, and loves my ass, as I pay my rent like 3-4 months in advance.
I say rent, as then they can't take your house as part of proceeds of crime.
Peace
