I love AJ and his motocross training, and I respect the hustle he has, but it’s important not to think that, just because you excel in one thing, you will excel in another. Everything takes expertise and years to get the hang of. If he was scraping together funding, let his partner put up money, and did the announcement, that’s just not smart. I’m not telling people I bought a home until the mortgage and offer is at least approved, maybe even finalized.

So do they get to keep the down payment?

Depends. They likely will get to keep some amount of money, but no way to tell how much without seeing the contract.

With MTF next door, that's a non issue, that fight has already been put to rest....

1st part of a 3 part youtube video here from Racer X films will show some of the previous history.  About 30 minutes total but a good watch.

I also believe the guy who commented he is the partner and got screwed is truthful.  If you put up money on a land contract with a partner, and the partner (whoever that may be) fails to come up with their end, you are out of what you invested, unless you have a specific clause in the contract protecting your investment.  Any good lawyer for the seller, would never allow that verbage to exist.  It would get redlined all day, unless the seller was OK with it.

My guess, is there will be some future legal action vs whoever walked (which we know was not GPF), it will all be spelled out in public court documents, if it hasn't already been done.

Hopefully all parties get made whole in the end, with as little headache as possible, and the moto community keeps trucking forward....

Are you sure it was a land contract and not an asset purchase agreement? With an asset purchase contract there would be what is called a good faith deposit that would be held in escrow, the contract would stipulate the contingencies, financing is typically a contingency. If it were a cash deal where the partners would have a separate agreement on how it was going to be funded and that fell apart outside of the purchase agreement and they couldn't fulfill the purchase agreement as a result then that would be a breach of the purchase agreement. The seller would be able to have a claim to the good faith deposit and my assumption is that the closing day came due and the buyers didn't have the money to settle the transaction and the seller chose not to move forward.

Was not a land contract. Was a purchase with owner financing. I paid up my half in February when we signed contracts. Other party was suppose to have his for closing and he did not. Leaving me and my family out allot of money.

I can understand GPF keeping some money to cover their lawyer fees, surveyors, appraisals, banker fees and other expenses related to the sale.  But to keep any money beyond that would be in poor taste.  Even if it is spelled out in the contract that they can keep the whole thing, doesn't mean that they should.  I hope you get some back.  Sorry brother.

My understanding when we were there (last of july, which was the last week before lorettas. The sale would take place August 1st) was that the other half was still living in one of the cabins there. So why destroy it if you still live/train there and are going to own it. I was told the building (gym) would be torn down? It was a nice building so that was puzzling to me but hey, its not my money.

This is what other people that had been living there for a few months told me. Its gossip so take it for what its worth.  Gym did no look destroyed to me, maybe sparse? But, it was our first time ever at a train facility so maybe i dont know what a high level gym looks like

Gym wasn't being torn down. I was about to add a lean too off of it for more space and get all new equipment. Rec room was being changed to a 2 bedroom house. 

Whatever Aj is saying on podcast he's lying. My bank account is still shy the money.  Aj has also lost a trainer, cameraman cam, Jetts endorsement and Lucas  Myrtle dropped him. He's a liar. He bullshit me for 10 months acting like he had all the money to buy the property on his own if he wanted but couldn't even come up with his portion of a deposit.

That’s pretty unchill of AJ. I get he thinks he’s adding value and just sharing that value, but it’s not easy or free to get good shots showing the riders’ technique. You have to travel to the race, sweat it out in the sun all day, plan everything out, shot it properly, edit the video. And AJ knows this. I’m sure ML or other creators wouldn't charge him a ton to use it. It’s the thought and curtesy that matters.
