I think it lends some formality and helps alot with tax time.

Hi Manus,I am personally a proponent of getting both a formal and informal education.

Do I need to have a formal lawyer approved document to spell out the co-ownership agreement?  

I don't see possessing an advanced degree as relevant to REI as I know there are many who have achieved success with little to no formal education but I guess fear has me clinging to the idea of needing degrees to make more money even when the money isn't guaranteed and the financial consequences are.

Hi Shawn,Depends on a lot of things; do the squatters have a lease, is it market rent, etc... usually you can get them out by either offering cash for keys, or going thru  a formal eviction, which will probably take 30-60days and $1000+ for eviction fees

From the way I understand it you're typically going to have a formal title search done after you win the bid because you're right, not worth spending all that cash if you don't get it.Also, just to say, a month can be a long way out for a sheriff sale and you often see them pull right up to the date, so don't stress about it just yet but just keep asking questions.

The President may have intended to resign, everyone may believe he resigned, but if the formal requirements were not followed, then his resignation may not be officially valid.

Knowledge is not a formal education, however, you can't just talk RE 100% of the time, at some point you'll have general conversations.

No formal pitches or anything, just friends and future friends hanging out.

This is like show up to a formal party in a nice suite but you're wearing worn out sandals.2.
