You are NEVER to forget self preservation. You don’t tell anyone your plans. What you’re doing, buying, or working on…ESPECIALLY YOUR FAMILY OR THOSE YOU THINK ARE FRIENDS. Because they’re not friends but your enemy informers. Talk to God and yourself and your daughter. Keep your money and business to yourself. When you reach your financial goals and real estate goals you’ve set for yourself. Then you can be a little more sharing. Give alms, pay your tithes and offerings, pray and obey God. And Heaven will keep you covered and bring the right people in your life. You can’t be successful worrying about other people’s opinions of you. I wish you success.
Soooo true! Thanks Mercy for a great reminder! I have much to talk about that but I thank you for that🙏🏽🙏🏽 Keep up with great work, keep shining and smiling👏🏽💕💕
Good advice. I learned this years ago by watching what my father dealt with renting to friends and family. The lesson I learned (I was literally as a child during that time) is NOT to do business with friends or family because chances are you can't afford the headaches.
This video is the gospel truth. I let my ex’s family stay in my property and the BIGGEST mistake of my life. He moved out in December 2019. I hired a management co in January 2020, had a new tenant March of 2020. Thank God this happened because the pandemic hit the end of March 2020. Because of my newly hired management co, they screened my tenant so well I had no payment issues at all, not even during the pandemic. Real Estate investing has taught me some hard lessons.
Thanks you for sharing this great advice!❤ I’m a small RUclipsr and Airbnb host myself, my first rental was a friend I never get paid for her stay but I learn my lesson.
Thank you for sharing. You are such a smart, beautiful, and strong woman. I have been watching you since and I can tell you that you have done extremely well for yourself. Stay focused and chase the life you want for yourself, your daughter, and the rest of your family. Stay blessed and don't stop growing.
Thanks for sharing Mercy, I agree with not doing business with friends and or family. My sister are going through it right now bc they decided to do business together and this has put my family in an uncomfortable situation bc if we say something to one of them the other one gets upset. Please don't rent your properties to your friends or family or even people in your circles, they will take advantage of you, especially bc they know you're a public figure . All the best as always ❤
Hey Mercy, good advice for old or young people. Family members are the worst. They think they can count your money better than you can and feel that they are entitled to some of what you have. I always say they had the same opportunities as I did. I tell my brothers that they should have saved some money, and they work every day. TFS, be safe and be well. 💙💙💙💙
If you lend family money check their lifestyle to see if they sqander their money if so be careful because they will probably not pay you back. If you want to give them money buy the item for them if its reasonable to do so because they may very well misuse the money and come back to you again. Sometimes the only way people will learn is to stand on their own two feet, yes they are family. Give them info on how to budget and keep doing it they were eventually get the message. Yes all what you saying Merc is true. Its hard to hear for some but its true
Thank you for taking the time to speak about your experience with family and money I will be a landlord soon air B and B so Thank you so much for the advice God bless
Hi Mercy, You are such a smart business woman. Everything you said is very true. The only thing I would correct you on is the way you used the word borrow, I think you should have not said borrow people money, but the word loan people money should be the correct way of saying it, I know what you meant but some people may get confused with the way you used the word borrow in your sentence, other than that you are absolutely correct. And thank you so much for always trying to help and teach people all about life lessons you are such smart woman thank you again for all that you do.
Mercy I have learned alot from this video , thanks so much❤❤❤ But I listened to one part with tears as we are a victim Currently a friend has walked a way with our $12000 😭😭😭 and we have learned the hard way with pain
So, I've been told that I'm too trusting. Someone very close to me has borrowed more than five thousand dollars from me but, getting the payments back has become impossible. Everytime I ask for my money back, I get, "What money??". So, I've decided NEVER to lend anything to this person again.
M, get the feeling u got burned by a family member. Most people already know what not to do with family & bus. The truth of the fact is that u need to heed your own advice. And don't get me wrong, I'm one of your biggest supporters.

Most of the time, they think they are paying for your home when, in fact, they could be paying an apartment company for the same amount or more.
Great advice!❤
Thanks ❤
Thank you so much sis for all the information and great advice❤❤

I love this about your channel because if I ever did investments on properties I will come and ask you
Mercy. What if you pay to get into Real state from program you see on RUclips. Is that good to invest in their program to make money 💰 ❓❓
That’s a great question. This is some thing you have to really do your research on and be very careful. There are a lot of scams out here. Good luck.❤
Mercy I have learned alot from this video , thanks so much❤❤❤
But I listened to one part with tears as we are a victim
Currently a friend has walked a way with our $12000 😭😭😭 and we have learned the hard way with pain

You meant to lend family members money not to borrow. To borrow money means you're taking money from them. Just saying ❤
🙌🏾🙌🏾
Mercy you speak nothing more than gospel truth try to help a friend boy or boy i learn my lesson real quick
Thanks love
This was very tacky. Talk to the family member who hurt you, in private. Too much spoken on social media. Family should be off limits.
❤
