I would like to write him a sample proposal but I'm not sure what to put in it.

Think a list of qualifications that applies a weight to each trait:Credit Score - XPets - XIncome - XPrevious recommendations - XLength of proposed lease - XDeposits - XTransunion gives you a go- no go decision but the above may help you grade the quality of each potential tenant while being objective.   

The City of Charleston has had the hardest time with their regulations, but I think they're nearly done with their proposals and will be enforcing some rules soon.

If you don't know what you'd like 5 years out then people are going to be proposing a lot of possibilities that won't have ground to take root in.The fact also stands that, without W-2 income, financing can be very hard without a lot of cash or a proven track record in real estate.

You can find the same in any industry or field where any proposal for change is met with a bureaucratic system to determine the absolute best way to do it.

Aloha everyone,I’m trying to cover all my bases here and wanted to propose this scenario to you and here your thoughts and ideas:I’m currently in escrow on an investment property that costs $600k.

My investor and I originally came up with the idea that we would be splitting everything 50/50 but since I have no cash in the game I threw a few ideas at him including different splits or paying me a small flat fee, but before I sent him a firm proposal I wanted to run it by you all...As all the guru's and BP podcasts talk about, I need to know my "why".

I liked the idea of proposing relocating a driveway for renters on the other side of the house, which is easy to do and just abandon use of the other driveway and garage (though the 2 car garage would be a sweet bonus).

When faced with these kinds of situation, I always ask myself what could possibly be the motive and what is in it for the person proposing such.
