Also, Brandon Turner was there, which was a very cool bonus!

Granted few deals are in need of a very fast closing, but when one comes up, how fast you get the money is the difference between an extra bonus paycheck or a lost deal.Going back to the OP deal, Jay hit the nail on the head -- a portal who had no idea what they were doing in a market they don't understand. 

Mike, thanks for the reply, I was under estimating the operating expenses, but even if I just get half of my original numbers, thinks seem to look like they would work out.I'm looking at this $500k as bonus money to grow in the future.

If you get the Carleton Sheets course, be sure to get all the bonus videos.

Remember this, you get two offers from a lender and broker for the same rate and the broker has the YSP disclosed on the GFE and the lender doesn't; the lender is making the same amount of money (not to mention any SRP bonus that is not listed).

I got lucky and lined up a very high paying job in my field (75k per year + bonuses) and I will start working there this summer.

The 3 units covered the mortgage and when I moved out, the front unit put $1,100 a month into my pocket.In fact, look for 4 units, owned by absentee owners that are in pre-foreclosure....How about that for a bonus?

Less profit smaller bonuses.

If I happen to get the chance at foreclosure proceedings on some property, thats a bonus.

I know it is okay to pay on a "per lead" basis so I have done that but I want to be able to give them a bonus after a property closes too (after all, they have earned it).Please help direct me to a website or organization that clearly states the Oregon and Washington laws about investors paying referral fees after closing and legality.Any help or info you could provide would be appreciated.I am not a realtor or mortgage broker.
