Aaron spells out many of the reasons these opportunities arise with sellers - the answer to how you find them is hitting the streets, finding the types of sellers who are likely to find themselves in the situations Aaron mentioned, and finding the successful investment brokers who know how to find these deals - there are a select few of us still around...Best of luckA

Spell it out nicely in a counter offer letter, explaining why.  

I just read through my post and I see at least 5 grammar and spelling errors.

Since I didn't see Corp, or Corporation spelled out (is that silly or what) and only saw CO then I emailed the company and asked, which is their response above.

When you are a small time real estate investor, a pm is not necessary and the price of having one can spell the different of you being able to hold on to your properties.Now when you becomes a big time operator, then you can probably can afford one because you have sufficient cashflow.  

While you may be a perfectly competent person, one cannot discount the fact that your spelling is off. 

Beyond the glaring grammatical and spelling errors, several sections of his agreement were unfinished (literally, sentences without an ending to the idea specified) and there was a specific clause that indicated that I would need to pay a certain sum of money in order to secure the loan that had not been discussed.

So I'd agree with Michel Lee, no hyphens and spell out your numbers. 

So, I can relate to Leigh's situation, When I was young playing "traffic" with my brother, I always spelled "STOP" signs backwards: "POTS". 

I’m only the messenger, shucks, I can barely spell ‘real estate’.
