You guys doing back and forth with that guy are making this thread boring. With a few more back and forths this thread would have been totally derailed and he would have achieved his aim.

Now it's up to you if you want to be his accomplice.

Baba jeje , you no want wahala. Yes, he should be ignored. He needs to simply contribute and tell us what ruqya is. Thats all

i was scared to watch at first knowing too well you wanted to throw something at my face Indeed, tax thing is hell. I think it is best to pay it off as soon as it is due instead of waiting 1 year or 2. Taxes piled up by then. And also not to overwork in the sense that one should not simply buy bunch of properties just bcus they are cheap. If possible hold on to just one for a while and manage it like that before moving forward. Otherwise, it may be too overwhelming.

I told u I follow a tenant to bankruptcy court
I don't play with my rent
I am bless to work four days a week , If I am not on call
So I have time to play the BS with tenants
Court system work in the areas I have my properties
The main reason I stayed out of Detroit

Damn you must have seen hell the way you sound. That's what i do actually. Four (4) days a week so i can have time for their madness. Now let me ask you how you handle additional 'tenants' like family members or friends who crept in and stay permanently without formally informing you?. You really mean tenant to the point of bankrupting them. I wanted to make that move in 2010 against one but lawyer and broker told me to let it slide.

Out Detroit-

Cool, i wll.

U Understand
My last project I was putting in 70 hours a week that include my 40hours at my regular job
The cheapest of my property is $60k
You said it all "Real estate is not easy but it is fun at the same time."
tenants most pay me . I have followed tenant to bankrupt court
One of the reason I didn't do D town the court system is more in support of the tenants in D town
I can move a tenant out in 45 days the reason for asking for a month and half security deposit

The way you said @bold got me laughing. Truly they MUST. It is very annoying when they start playing games. This happened in Brooklyn NY around the time i had issue with mine. The nigerian guy killed his tenant by stabbing her to death. He was frustrated bcus court system failed him. They kept extending the lady's stay in his house. He was sentenced i think to 25yrs. I didnt allow this thought to come over me at all. I was frustrated too.

Take it easy with these hours ooo. That's a killer. Wait oo, this cities you mentioned earlier, aren't they in the DT?. Never heard of them. I dont live in DT. I only visit since 2013 after i dumped Atlanta. Now you gave me heads up about DT court system. But guess what?. I wont be pained. NYC court system is worst. They back tenant. It was bloomberg administration that enacted pro-tenant law. At the minimum, if everything goes smooth without either party play games, it takes 90days. You first go to lawyer to issue one month quit notice to tenant. If tenant move out, thats good news. If not, you then start court proceeding. Give at least two weeks before court date. After that, you and tenant go to court. If you win, which is another extra one month minimum. Believe me, court will give tenant one month to move. You see three months already gone. Right there judge or resolution room would tell tenant to come back to court if he cant move with convincing evidence why a month is not enough (which most of them do). So after one month, you better pay marshal the first time you go to court. If you wait till the end of his/her tenancy before you pay marshal, tenant will take advantage and live another 2 months. Marshal eviction is taking up to two months in NYC now. I had a tenant lived in my house 11 months rent free 7yrs ago. It was tough time for me.

Do Christians and Jews see Allah as God, do Hindus, Yoruba traditionalists see Allah as God?

This is not about bigotry, it's thier belief, dogma, the same way Muslims don't see Yahweh, Odin, Brahma, Olorun, FSM as Gods.

Where do you keep your reasoning?

GoodFaith:
dude it is hell to trying to do all the deals together and doing cash
Like i told u , I am cash break

I understand. Nothing comes easy. But then, if you complain, let me tell you about David investor in Atlanta. The dude is a silent millionaire. I met him in Georgia to purchase a small vacation home. He is nigerian from OYO. He owns hundreds of thousands of properties and lost counts. He drove me around Georgia to show me. He even had shares at a franchise hotel called super8 where i slept. I thought he was joking or lying until i woke up the following morning from my hotel room he paid for. The workers there are caribbean and white people. They started greeting him "yes sir". "morning sir". Thats when i realised i just met a "big guy". But he is somewhat simple looking fellow . I dont want to exaggerate but i will give you minimum descriptions of his properties along highway in Dekalb county. While we were driving by semi-highway, on both sides of the highway are buildings that belong to him. He kept saying "look, these are my houses, and these ones and all through". He was going 25MPH. I was like Lord, how do you cope with tenants?. This is too much. You definitely need to hire superintendents and standardize your business. He just looked at me and said nothing. He actually does everything from his home. Pretty much home business. You know, usually folks do RE on the side while they go to regular job?. So i asked him how he goes to to work with all these burdens?. He said this is his full time job. The guy changes his wardrobe every 6 months according to him and give to salvation army. And also lost $700k in a deal at the time i visited him.

Apart from these building along highway, he took me to the inside different counties (suburb) to show me his other properties for sale. Believe me, he has keys on them locked down with alarms. Matter of fact, some tenants were outside at the time we were driving on the highway and waved to him. After we got to the last house he showed me, i asked him again about coping with those houses especially the ones on highway?. He said he is tired (too much money) and some tenants are living for free for yrs bcus he can't keep track like he used to. If prospective buyers want to see the house, he doesn't need to go with them. He simply gives them code to unlock and he changes the code afterward. He said he only pick me up to show me around bcus i am from out of state. He doesn't do that for no one. So govt has offered to step in bcus those houses along highway are close to the airport. Govt wants to develop the area and build hotels and airport facilities. They are offering him cash. He said he was still thinking whether to accept the offer or not and they gave him time.

That was it until i returned home. These properties range from 15k-100,000. The one i wanted to buy from him in another county was only 5k (3 bedrooms bungalow close to major city near Atlanta '96 took place. This was in 2013. And ofcourse, he got caught up with irs in the process cuz we went back and forth to his tax man's office. David has not been to nigeria since 1995. He has website he advertises his properties. Can you handle this?. His website is http://investorsdelight.com/?doing_wp_cron=1517332090.1303451061248779296875

I haven't talked to him since and i think he took my advice after i left, that he needs to forget what happened to him in nija and revisit home. A yr after, i noticed he has expanded his business in lagos. So in order not to exaggerate his houses on the highway, at the minimum at least his houses extend 1 mile long before we turned unto another street. Real estate is not easy but it is fun at the same time. You gain and you lose.

Getting people to pay rent in DT is a federal case
So all dealing was in Southfield, Bloomfield,
Thing are going too expense in Southfield moving into Redford

so what's your position, are you RE investor or tenant?

fash78:
Hello house. I am not sure if this question has been asked before and answered. What is a fair percentage of the rent a lawyer or property manager is entitled to? I am renting a unit for 1M and a lawyer I want to hire to manage the property is asking for 10% of that. Is that what is the going rate in Lagos? I welcome contributions from the house.

Man, San ida mewa re

Pay the 10% tithe

GoodFaith:
U don't really get my story.
The house was new and the new house was for sale very cheap
I din't want to deal in D town and I stayed out of D town

why you don't want to deal in DT?

How do u know I put my money in one basket, U can't fail with estate?
With the prices year back

It was like ford motor stock was $1.75

yes, I understand business do fail sometimes. But my RE is at the micro stage. I don't deal at the higher level. I wanna eat my bread and butter slowly and quietly

GoodFaith:
If you have invested $1m in estate in MI six year ago today ur $1m is about $5m

What do you know about D town?
It is crazy but be careful
IF I have put all my money in D town
I miss out on the new houses that was toward downtown on Woodward
Sad but blessed

the building in question is located in downtown on Woodward. It is not smart of you to put all your money in one basket. C'mon now, that's not a good business strategy. I don't do that. You gotta spread. But then, can you afford new houses?

EgunMogaji:
Real estate is the way.

I tell you man, it is. It is fun. Even during dull moment you still make money. and this building in question is in downtown. That's lots of potentials.

“Italian town Ollolai sells $1 homes to lure new residents“

http://www.cnn.com/travel/article/ollolai-italy-one-euro-homes/index.html

chai, there got to be reason this is fast becoming a ghost town. Anyways, whatever the reason, I had take the offer and buy majority of the estate. With time when people are gonna get attracted to the town, man, I would be billionaire. It is good to have insight.

This happened in Detroit to Arab man. I went to buy stuff from him last December. I noticed he has moved across the street opposite where he was when I was there early last yr.

I asked why he moved and he said rich people bought the entire building. He said he had opened his shop in that building for 20yrs when the entire building was only 20k and he had been living in the area since 60s. I said he should have thought of buying the entire building back then and by now, he would be millionaire. Was it bcuz of money at that time?. He said he had money and he was even better off that time than now. But he never for once thought about buying the building. The entire building was purchased for USD 6m last yr.

I am smarter than that. With money available I would have used that opportunity to buy the entire building. By now I would rent out for supplement income. He feels so pained when I said that. Now white people took over and bought entire block (it is long building in the entire block for 20k in the 90s now 6million in 2017). The entire building was almost abandoned and partly boarded early last yr.

You have not shown me how flying spaghetti monster cannot be a God or is not God

Imagine someone said Allah is God, this is how Christians, Jews reason too, Allah is NOT God to them

Only bigots amongst them say this. You have a serious problem as I have always said

Raintaker:
was there a pre Adamic man?

it is still point of debate. There is no clear cut dalil in the Quran and sunnah. And whether there was man before Adam, it is quite irrelevant.

The reason some suggest there might be pre-Adamic man was due to Angels remark. It shows they had foreknowledge and might experience human activities. Or they simply perceived how human would behave if created. Or they might simply made the remark simply out of jealousy.

Either way the Angels are correct. We can see evidence of what they perceived now. Scientists however opined that there might be pre-Adamite.

Raintaker:
Really?
So you haven't noticed all this while that the tingling guy knows little about Islam.

I know. I'm just trying to help him. He has proved further that he makes no sense but he thinks he is

Imagine he said Flying Spaghetti is God. That's how worst he can get

That's the way i bought mine thou back in 2013, the one i showed you 2yrs ago here. Back taxes was 3k and i paid it off and there was no major damage. Still has lots of potentials in it.

How can I be ignorance of what I know from childhood.

Your problem is, you are very ungrateful to Allah and selfish. I have quoted you verses from Qur'an where Allah accused fellow like you that aftere you grown, you deny Him and set up partners with Him.

Yet, you are still breathing free air He provided. You are walking graciously on His planet Earth without any remorse. Are you waiting until you fall sick and bedridden and can't function as you used to before believing His Majesty?.

Maybe you should ponder on this.

ikupakuti:
One of my favourite hadith. Now, the state (hal) fana in the realm of the holy prophet (saw) is beyond the reach of even the angels. The grace acquired in such hal makes the angels look inferior to man, hence they begin to admire & revere them.

The angels knew should God give is khalafa to man, then man would definitely rule over them while they would remain @ his service, reason why they kicked againt it when they were notified.

Foreknowledge?. They had that at the time or based on experience of pre-Adamic man?.

I had skipped some important posts months ago. Decided to come back here to read over. This thread B+

emekaRaj:
Like someone said in the beginning of this thread. Performing ruqyah increases ur spirituality.
Ruqyah is also a form of dawah, as the majority of the jinns are kafir, so every time u are able to convert them ur spiritual status increases. So at some point u start seeing them, having visions, etc.

For some reason dats still a mystery to me, their prayers seems to be accepted by Allah instantly. So when u exorcize too much too ur mouth becomes powerful too, when u pray for pple it is quickly accepted. But u will have to be careful not to curse or swear on someone too cos it might happen quickly too

No doubt

When you said New York be specific, if New York City.The biggest City in USA, well I can say yes. Otherwise, there are many beautiful counties in New York State that are very affordable.

yes, NYC.

Dat Dude is really boring

he's enjoying the show indirectly

Fundamentalist:
Explain to us how the ruqyah was done ?

Simple .

Are you afraid we might point out some " unislamic " or vague practices.

sorry, buddy. You are not in position to tell anyone what is right or wrong here. We all know what ruqya is. Everything he stated which your scholars would not fault is correct. Onus is on you to point out what problem is from what he narrated so far.

Let me remind you that you are derailing this thread

Fundamentalist:
who knows, if your form of ruqyah is not full of shirks in them.

tell us na

Did you read this?

emekaRaj:
Like you said up there "Sorry man , I don't owe you any explanation"

See how you continue to sin in the name of "sunnah". What exactly he has said that is "shirk". Afalataqilun"?
