We certainly have some good companies represented here but don't assume that because anything here that might be advertised has any endorsement you need to do your due diligence on anything you do in RE.Turn key operations can be ripe with fraud or scams, there are those that have picked up very cheap properties, put lip stick on, put a partner type tenant in at higher than market rates to justify a much higher price to sell the package.

I'm not endorsing any company or group I mentioned(I don't work for them) and I am an active licensed Realtor and investor here in Houston.

Look too for memorandums filed on properties as these folks will be locking up properties.Talk to the title companies, tell them you're starting out and ask them who some of the area investors are, they usually don't disclose clients but remind them it's public record who buys and that they aren't being asked about specific deals, they may tell you some names..Same with RE attorneys, talk to them and just let them know you'd like some direction, not referrals as they don't like making it seem as if they are endorsing anyone, but just as to common knowledge of who buys.

Just want to endorse the get a buyers agent.

I'm not sure if Rick is totally up and running yet, but I worked with him on space planning a new facility they are moving into in the next month.He has a couple of partners and has had years of experience in collections.I've never used him before so I can't stamp my name on any endorsement, but he came to mind when I read this post.Let him know Taylor Jennings from Office Works referred you.Richard RainhoFidelis Asset Management, Inc.1427 West 86th Street, Suite 562Indianapolis, IN 46260Office Phone: 716-771-1294Direct Line: 317-682-0555Direct Fax: 317-759-2564Cell Phone: 317-378-0229Toll Free Phone: 888-471-0280 ext 1000Toll Free Fax: 877-504-3190Email: [email protected]: www.FidelisCollections.com

I understand most folks endorse the use of a custodian and think I’ve heard custodians can be insured up to different amounts.

. - that info is already available to them on the endorsement you did on the reverse side of their cancelled check.

Good opportunity; Might fine tune this, looks like it would be 4 years of rent if that's the case.Why not do an annual lease with an automatic renewal that makes it likely that the next year will kick in and continue unless you both agree to terminate (but he could terminate following certain steps).You sign a note, you write him a monthly check, he endorses it back to you for rents or exchange checks.

Have the subs provide a certificate of insurance naming you as additional insured with the broadest AI endorsement (CG2010 11 85), primary wording and a waiver of subrogation for their general liabity, auto and workers comp coverage.3.
