for me I would have been better off donating that 75k to habitat for humans would have got more out of it than a tax write off !!

For example, it may be 20% off (retail only not on price discounts/clearance unless specified) but then 3% CC payment fee or ACH fee. 

It is not uncommon - main reason we see right now is over inflated original ARVs and now borrowers cannot sell and pay off the lender. 

On the other hand, if you write something into the lease that you agree upon, it should be fine, but that may turn off many prospects IMO.

Hey All, I’ve found an off market duplex in need of some repair (estimate unknown as I haven’t been inside yet).

Can easily get a 20% referral fee just for sourcing and handing off that lead.

I’m dropping one off tomorrow for another tenant.

Jaron Walling said something that caught my attention, "search for and buy a bad roof, leverage it during the negotiation"....especially of the property has been sitting on the market longer than normal for the current market, a "bad roof" might be a gift from the real estate genie.My point is this: get good at estimating and fixing a bad roof (or any particular problem found with most houses that sit on the market longer) and you'll get comfortable buying/fixing properties that scare off other buyers. 

Ft)For ARV, it is best to have an experienced real estate agent find comps for you to determine a safe number to work off of. 

The problem I was having with Stessa and Rentastic is that it only tracks what’s in the bank account not what I get from the PM, so the numbers are off and I have to go in and correct it all.
