Hi all,
I'm looking for advice and experience in how tough is it to sell land in Mexico living in the states. I have a lot of land for sale off the coast of the pacific. Seems attractive for building a vacation home ...

**Standard Compensation Models** - **Flat Fee**: Engineers and developers are often paid a flat fee for their services.

Some impressive features including extensive listing/syndication and state specific guidance provided such as max security deposit.RentRedi is a flat fee for the most part and has some cool features like pre-qualification and integration with QuickBooks.

When it comes to the risks, if a project goes belly up, you could lose everything unless some other developer takes over the project.

Not including septic of course because that;s an easier run.I would do a sewer scope even if just to know if/where there were branch lines or moderate blockages.....or even the bellies.

People on teacher's salaries are traveling to Europe in lie-flat seats or even first class.

At least it’s not another wave of flat earth apostles.

They use more of a flat fee approach. 

What I do for my units with shared meters is I charge 50% flat to each tenant which prevents waste I get no issues with any waste due to this but the ones that share electric bills do get many complaints due to the size of the bill.
