@Scott Trench @Jonathan GreeneThe scenario that Scott laid out is my story.

In order to collect 3% in the scenario you presented, you'd need to amend your original buyer agreement.If your commission is 2.5% and the seller is paying 2%, you can structure the additional .5% into the purchase price. i.e.

It is very common to see some seems open up (especially on cheaper made brands) over time.I've also noticed that if a floor has a low spot that is parallel with the planks it can keep the planks from locking fully.

But would me and my spouse being on the title together and just me as the only solo member in the LLC be a “common ownership” or would it have to be exact and me have both of us as members of the LLC!

The charge has become all too common for custody disputes.

@Devin Voelker,Like @John Mason asked, check to make sure your comps are solid, maybe even price in the worst case scenario for a rental. and see how that affects the numbers. 

Check how many electrical meters there are, and if there is one for the common area. 

A lower down payment might lead to a break-even scenario or even negative cash flow.

I don’t know your particulars but schedule e and no substantial services is common with self managers and very tax efficient.

Good afternoon, I just closed on a multi-family property (4 plex in an older home) . 3 units are rented, 1 is vacant and there is a shared common area for laundry.
