I know I just ratified a transaction where I was selling a new build ( not yet built) and the broker representing the buyer had a very high buyers broker agreement that simply does not work for builders and what we have to do to manage the process.

The Dunning-Kruger effect is running rampant in the forums.

Could be your housekeeper.I've found that condos that employ an on-site agent who lives at the complex typically have higher dues because it is not cost effective to do so.

It is not my requirement to prove it came from elsewhere.It would be more effective to work with the HOA to confirm the actual source of the leak, rather than requiring me to disprove an assumption.In future For issues like this, I suggest contacting the HOA first, as they can coordinate with both of us and identify the source instead of making assumptions.and make our communication smoother.You're making it personal and overthinking it. 

It now makes me question whether other platforms, like Avail, are also allowing the tenant to pay via credit card and we as landlords are just unaware of the mechanism because it's a side of the transaction we don't have visibility into.

I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s  a marketing gimmick to get potential borrowers through the door through  weirdly worded non recourse language that is effectively recourse or by offering such terrible leverage borrowers would rather have the recourse and competitive terms. 

THE NEW FLORIDA SQUATTERS LAW WENT INTO EFFECT ON JULY 1, 2024 my Brother was successful with an adverse possession claim in CA.. he was not squatting he owned the property next door and the person who owned it died and I guess had no heirs.

The investors that I work with value that we act as their boots on the ground for the transaction and normally use the equity gain to buy the next property.  

Trying to figure out the proper, best, and alternative routes to making meaningful relationships and wondering what the most effective means is to developing leads that may come along in the probate process. 

I'm talking to the seller's broker, but I would like to find my own people to assist with the due diligence period, such as an SBA loan broker, an accountant with experience doing QoE for this kind of transaction, and a lawyer.
