How do folks keep up with cutting back the weeds.

Of course, some folks have abused that provision in the law.

There are a couple of deals some folks might want to take advantage of - Black+Decker 12 cup coffee maker - $10 - https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0C8B9V7HR/ref=sw_img_1We had this one in the lakehouse.

We just did this as a seller on some of my new builds.. we sold 3 in the last few week and I negotiated commission on all of them.. a little different for us here in Oregon as these are new builds and folks ask for upgrades.. so like on one I said sure we will upgrade to Hardwood throughout but we are not paying a broker fee to your agent you will need to pay them.. well they passed on the hardwood and we agreed to pay their broker 1%. thats how it worked out.. in the higher priced markets its going to put buyers agents on the spot. because if sellers say we will pay 10k which is about 1% and buyers agents are used to getting double that they will have a hard time talking to their buyer who still thinks 10k is a big pay day and wont understand why the agent thinks they are getting shorted.. 

Lots of folks got burned badly in about 2013 and were underwater at renewal.

Not sure how much that tells you, but might be better than nothing. also depends on the type of property if its a rental being sold then ya most realtors will have a good list of folks looking for a rental with teh right numbers if its owner occ this simply is not remotely possible unless its a certain school district or certain style of home.. 

I felt a need to tell folks that SMS is good, and bad and has risks. 

While I'm also looking around, I figured I might as well ask the nice folks on BP.If you have a broker you love or a policy you've used before, would you mind sharing that info?

We have alot of folks in socal doing that same strategy over here bc the prices are cheaper and the regulations are much more lax. 

While I don't offer PM services outside the folks I work with to purchase investment properties, I'm happy to chat if you need some help/advice.
