It wasn't directly through Kaye Financial, but through someone in a high-level position there. The loan was presented as a helpful solution, but the terms were extremely one-sided and ultimately set me up for financial hardship. There was little to no transparency about the long-term consequences. What seemed like a short-term fix became a long-term financial nightmare. When I attempted to renegotiate or seek support, the tone shifted to pressure and threats. I was left feeling trapped and betrayed. It caused severe stress and disrupted both my personal and professional life. It took three separate attempts to find a lawyer who truly believed me and understood what was happening -- and who could prevent them from taking my house. Once proper legal scrutiny was applied, the situation was finally exposed for what it was. I strongly advise anyone considering doing business with Kaye Financial to read every word carefully -- and run it by a trusted attorney or financial advisor before signing. Just because something is legal doesn't mean it's ethical or fair. I hope this helps someone avoid what I went through.

I have been using William Curry as a contractor, real estate agent, property manager and overall…read morereal estate investing advisor/guru for my Detroit real estate investing for close to ten years.This fellow knows all the ins and outs of real estate investing more than anyone I've met. My business model is buying and renting out single family homes and he has been a super resource for me, right from identifying potential properties to renovating them in a cost effective way and then finding a good tenant. In all honesty, I haven't used him too much for property management--I have a good, reliable person for that--but he has on several occasions found very good tenants for me. His contractor services offer very reliable work at a reasonable price. He is great at getting the job done on time and if there is any problem he will always will fix it to my satisfaction. He's very good about taking detailed before, during and after pictures, which is important to me as an out of town investor(I can't recall how many times contractors have promised me pictures which never seem to materialize). Also, he's excellent at advising what type of rehab will work for a given property. The trick is to make a rental property as attractive as possible for a potential tenant while spending as little as possible and William can do that for you. Of course, that doesn't mean you should skimp on things relating to safety and code. He's very knowledgeable about what inspectors might be on the lookout for so he will advise you accordingly. The only thing I can think of that might be an issue for some people is he won't always take your call right away. I guess he gets booked up with a lot of different people asking him all sorts of things since he's such a good resource. It hasn't really been a problem for me since he always returns my call within 24 hours(and emails usually quicker than that). But if you're someone who wants to hear your contractor's voice right away if some concern arises, that might be something to consider. In sum, I wholeheartedly recommend Fourth Dynasty Enterprise for your real estate investing needs and as a general contractor for any situation. Keep up the good work, William!

We were so happy with him 18 years ago that we recommended him to many friends and family members over the years, and all who went with Scott were exceedingly happy with the results. Recently, we gave Scott the difficult task of submitting an offer that was 20% under the asking price! Although the house was indeed priced too high, we knew this would likely result in a resounding "No!" from the seller. Scott's gift of painting an honest but persuasive story on the condition of the house resulted in us getting that house for 16% under the listing price. That is huge in real estate terms!! I don't think that your average real estate agent would have been able to make that happen.
