many mortgage bankers follow specific guidelines in order to sell their notes, like right away.if you decide to use Hard Money - you'll have much more flexibility in terms of being able to put less down, invest in different types of properties and present your investment strategy, rather than just the property itself.what i'm saying here is, if you buy a house and use Wells Fargo - they're not going to be concerned with something like the ARV (after repair value), whereas a HML might loan you money based on that - which grealy enhances your investment options.i know that doesn't make sense right now, but with a little research - you can come to understand the old saying:there's more than one way to skin a cat...being new, just be very cautious what you get yourself involved with.

Your lease option is still just a lease with an option to buy which may never be exercised.

He should be allowed to exercise that option.

Is this a kickback or is it something that could enhance a buyer's experience with you?

Don't worry about the repair costs during this exercise unless you're doing rehabs (you can make an educated guess for practicing - it's fun to see how it changes your numbers).

Exercise isn't even in my vocabulary any more.

And, agents can collaborate and consult with clients on the Listingbook platform, while offering tools that build relationships and enhance the agent's value.

Before I took possession of the building he had the previous owner send the upstairs tenants a letter asking them not to use thier exercise bike in the morning as it disturbs him.

Much like you, I got licensed to enhance my investing with little desire to deal with retail buyers/sellers on a daily basis.

It's a great workout for you, the homeowner, if you want some exercise, and the results are great when you're done, but I wouldn't recommend you let your renter build a fence.Take Care,Chris
