Just don't forget to treat them to a nice dinner every now and then to say "Thanks!".

If you ever get the chance to take a dinner cruise on the Spirit of Norfolk I would highly recommend it.There is so much to see and do in this country I feel a lot of people miss out because they are so busy making a life that they forget to enjoy it.

I'm just trying to protect myself against disaster, and I know without the right paperwork, the finish will be like always, me in debt and the tenant making his dinner toast to how inexperienced I was.

I propose a Tuesday night dinner at the Marshfield Tavern, 1 Proprietor's Drive, Marshfield.  

After every deal closes take your realtor to dinner, take your loan agent to lunch, and buy flowers for the escrow agent and the Realty office receptionist.

How will family dinners be, when he's 2-months behind on rent, and you see him driving a new car?   

It's an important decision, I generally give people about a week to think about it - if you're in a slower market than the Bay Area, you might have more time.Think of it as eating dinner at a restaurant.

Even if it is only say $180 year, that saves about $60 in taxes.... a nice dinner out in my part of the woods :-)Dan Dietz

You aren't entertaining dinner guests it's an insurance adjuster :)Not like you can fake a tornado. 

At least buy me dinner first before taking me out back and shanking me in back.
