Maybe someday we will be having that conversation at your favorite coffee shop, or park, or whatever it is for you!

First they claimed to be having financial issues due to health issues, so we gave them the benefit of the doubt and worked with them for a few months.

Before giving them a offer, your going to be pitching them that you don't have agent fee, they wont be having to deal with listing the property and getting offers lower than their asking price, your offering to close in x number of days, and your going to have to do x number of repairs that is going to cost big bucks.

I will also be having an electrician add more outlets and double check that the knob and tube is completely replaced (inspections came back that it was but double checking), plus I will re-insulate all the outside walls before putting up sheet rock.

Geez...I'm fine with a 50 lb, well-behaved/trained/vaccinated pooch with Renter's/Pet Insurance in place and a separate pet deposit and agreement. 

The POA gives them the authority to act in your behave; The W-9 does none of the above -- that a tax doc.I would make them MEMBERS and then use the S-Corp pass thru for taxes.

Just our experience, different markets behave differently.  

And it teaches people that if they behave extremely poorly, they can get paid for it.

Hi Noel, try running numbers on this place and see what you come up with. http://www.realtor.com/realestateandhomes-detail/1... hopefully that link works I seem to be having issues with posting.

So refreshing to hear how Brandon got started, and shared same emotions and doubts we all may be having during the beginning stages of this process.
