If it was a job loss or reduction, I can see that people would just sell out because they just can't afford it anymore.Another issue is whether or not the Price Drops will be REAL or NOMINAL.

Some management companies have a nominal renewal fee to cover their time on the paperwork. 

But if you are ok with a nominal amount of wealth preservation or return on investment then your timing doesn't need to be perfect.

They provide eviction services at nominal fees for members.

Once I buy a tax certificate, can I immediately transfer (or "sell" for nominal consideration) it to my LLC, or would I need to wait until after I've converted it to a tax deed, and then record in my name and immediately convey to LLC?

the seller pays the buyers agent as well.as an agent you work for your broker for 2 years in most states then you can take the brokers exam and be on your own .. so yes there is a apprenticeship if you will.there are plenty of low cost brokers that only charge a very very nominal fee to hang your license I mean less than 500 a transaction.. just have to google for them.. these cater to investor agents.and an agent is at no disadvantage vis a vi making offers on MLS properties as anyone else.. only thing you put in your offer is a statement staying you are an agent.. that's all that's requiredWhat @Chinmay J. is referring to is you get the hot sheet at 2 in the morning.. now not many brokers or agents I know is going to look at it scan it and send you deals. .you need to do this for yourself.My wife is an agent she does one flip a quarter.. she finds them on MLS ( and not at 2 am either LOL) last one she did she made a little over 125k cash in her skinny jeans.. right off of MLS.. now there was multiple offers and she is very ex[pericned at this and usually will land the deals.And even if you don't get your deals on MLS if your in the flipping to retail bizz your going to sell your home on MLS.. so being an agent to list your own deals is critical in my mind and anyone who does not control their own listings and sales side as a flipper builder is really just giving money away and not in control.now that's in the state I live in.. in other states I hire brokers..

Nothing strange to have rights to occupy for life or a specific period of time - rent free or with a nominal payment of rent, and or requirements for repairs and maintenance, plus rates and taxes. 

Since laws and contracts are way above our head, we just want to offer them and ourselves peace of mind knowing we're protected.If you have a great template or source of both contracts or could refer an real estate investor attorney in Florida that could put our legal situation together for a nominal fee(my partner's sister is a corporate attorney that offered to do it for free but may take a few weeks) please let me know. 

So, our ongoing costs would include the business license (nominal) and some sort of taxes to the city -- a 1% tax on rents is the main thing, then maintenance/repairs/time lost at lease turnover.Given all the new systems in place, I don't think repairs/maintenance would be too much.

On that end I’ll nominate myself haha!
