Not true in all states, here, anyone who facilitates a transaction needs a license.

Keep in mind that in this scenario you are either "fixing and flipping" or "wholetailing" or "buy and holding" and that you require a cash investor "lender" to facilitate the means in which you are going to buy the property.To long; didn't read (TL;DR):YesSome resources:http://www.reiclub.com/articles/wholesaling-buyerhttp://www.reiclub.com/articles/wholesale-buyers-h...

Sometimes they may just have no where to go, so if you can facilitate that, it might be worth the lost rent, potential future damage, stress, etc.. 

We're in for a roller coaster ride, and dropping the fed fund rate will provide a temporary band-aid but will facilitate longer term problems, mainly inflation, that can only be fixed by raising rates back up and letting the recession run its course.

I might even fix up the electrical enough to get power up, since I can do all that, and the cost of materials is next to nil, and that will enable me to run fans to air out the property, power tools to do the "puttering around," etc.2) If that fails to make it attractive enough for a cash buyer, offer the best terms possible to minimize the rehabber's out-of-pocket expenses and facilitate the easiest deal.

I would request that she provide a 30 day notice, then i would ask that she keep the place clean and facilitate showings.

No LLC means better vesting for you and facilitates refinancing. 

Take into account you have to pay insurance and a general power bill, have someone who collects rent and facilitates move ins but still the number could still produce some serious cash flow.

About the 3% being credited to the buyer: As long as there is "appraised value" to facilitate an offer that the seller will accept that will "net" them an amount they would have accepted with out the credit, then it's splitting hairs.  

I disagree with Matt, an Agent is there to facilitate the purchase they are not contractors; I believe Buyers make mistakes by relying too heavily on Agents when it comes to important decisions beyond market pricing & research.
