Purchase price: $123,000 Cash invested: $15,000 This was my first personal real estate transaction.

I ran into these gugys personally coming out of the GFC were money was really tough to raise..

This is what the person basically said to me when they tried to explain it!

When I asked why I was paying for a service fee during a period where I never turned on service, the customer service person explained that even if I didn't have service turned on, and there was no usage, there is a monthly fee for the line that runs from the street to my house so that when I reconnect, they don't have to rip up the ground and put in a new line.To me this sounded ridiculous and the power and gas companies are not charging any such fees. 

Hey @Scott Chauncey, for the 2 SMLLCs, as long as they are disregarded to your personal tax return you can have them within the same QBO.

In turn, everyone piles on.If you present some specifics and your personal metrics (credit score, experience, w-2?

It's best to quickly address lease violations and inter-personal issues ASAP before they can get out of control.How's a VA going to handle that?

A lot of times, you think you have the right person and then they ghost you right when you think you are locking them in.

IN my personal LO there was an agent in each one of the transactions .. the two I sold the contracts came through a broker and the one I bought had a listing agent and I represented myself as a CA Broker but of course did not take a fee.. the Napa one was really cool for us not so much for the seller..

Even if the owner seems like a really nice person, they will micromanage the builder and not like the specs of the house the builder needs to do, and/or the timing in which the builder gets it done, etc.
