I own several rental properties in the Cleveland Area and I also own a local insurance agency.

I think it's more about adhering to contract law and being careful to not violate agency laws.

I said "you don't need to write a report, just take a look at this and give me your opinion"Her response was "uh no thank you" and so I have quietly gone about getting opinions from various programs and agencies such as the local Chamber of Commerce and Small Business Development and Community Funding and Development, my realtor, local real estate investors, and various programs and it's been an interesting process.Probably the highest and best use of this piece of property is child care.People are paying $125 per week per child for child care.Eight kids equals $1,000 per week.$1,000 per week is "high wages" for this community.The building is large enough to support a large number of kids.Sixteen kids per week equals $2,000 Twenty four kids per week equals $3,000I can't make $3,000 per week turning this into a duplex.Someone mentioned turning it back into a church and that is a good idea - I like it because it can be done while I'm doing these other things and just have that as additional income!

Minutes from bus routes that connects to the train which connects to major parts of the city.Ideal Location - located in a mature neighborhood surrounded by several desirable schools.Near local amenities such as a shopping malls and leisure centers.Home setup is desirable - top level and potential legal basement for dual incomeHome is in rough shape and can add value to it (BRRRR method) which is what I want.Alley and Garage parking.Cons - Located on two main roadsThere is street parking in front of the home (2 lanes of traffic both ways). 

Charge the fees for the eviction to the tenant and send those fees to a collection agency.

I also found one that states that the local agency is not allowed to charge impact fees more than what the actual impact to the area would be.

I checked on the town code and the type of zoning it has is capable of having the dwelling changed from a single family into a dual family through a building permit process.

I see a lot of newer agents if they don't have a warm market or sphere to tap into.. they will get on a big producers team.. this can jump start you.out our way agencies have lead creation systems and will literally hand you web leads for listings or sales.My wife had taken a few year hiatus and to kind of jump start ( her normal business is referrals) but she wanted to work some leads and get going and it worked very well she made many sales and got a few listing which in this market is simply money in the bank. find your niche.. and remember 95% of agents all try the same thing.. you may want to specialize.. and commerical agents though dog tough to start if you make it.. its a really good business once your established.

He is probably charging them a commission as well so he is not your sellers agent he is the dual agent (they need to disclose this information usually have you sign a form saying you know about this) it is more likely that he works with the developer to keep the deal from falling apart than him standing up for you.

dual source of repayment.. you and the tenant.. the risk in money comes when the fed's require banks to make loans to those that do not qualify under normal circumstances.. the CRA really hammered banks and lenders..
