I have no skin in the game here -- I have not done any transactions with Neu Real Estate Group yet. 

I used to work with great Realtors who would show up on appraisal day and greet the Appraiser with a folder full of comps that were very flattering, plus paperwork describing in glowing detail all of the improvements to the house and their value.I would insist on a new appraisal, and either have your Realtor do the above, or do it yourself.

They all want to see some of your own skin in the game. 

The proposal sounds promising, and I wanted to reach out to see if anyone here has experience with this type of arrangement.The investor has offered to give me $10,000 upfront, which seems to indicate that he has some skin in the game.

Just left a glowing review.
