Any flippers out there ever install solar power packages on their roofs or use green building in their plans when they flip properties?

Young people generally want to leverage as much as possible - it essentially magnifies the power of their investments.

My favorites are non-probated estates, they are usually a lot messier than when a family hires an attorney and goes through legal steps to perfect the title and establish who has the power to sell.The kickers are when the heirs are out of area, there are more than one heir, and they have undefined between them responsibility to take care of the house.

But the park owners saw me as a competitor and they have some powerful tools to keep investors out.

We didn't want a PM company that asked you to sign over a power of attorney so they could care for all of your bills.

I suggest you have a one member LLC with the guy with the borrowering power, after the loan is made then allow the other member to join the company.

Hey everyone, I just closed escrow on a duplex but I have been having some concerns regarding renting both units out to tenants.First, I am going to be placing a community washer and dryer but powered by one of the unit's gas and power, should I go about reimbursing the tenant for the utility costs?

(not in it for the $$$, just to get into the market, PROBONO work)2. my accountant said I can't deduct any of the work I have done on it... b/c I am not generating any INCOME from it.3. in PA, I can't even management it if I don't have BROKER license (thank goodness for POA (power attorney)these are things I didn't know til after...I have another investor waiting (again a family) but I really don't want to do another probono work..... so I am getting my license now.Make sure you have in WRITING the 50/50 split, and that you have Power of Attorney... or open an LLC with both your names on it, and by it that way.we haven't decided to buy/hold/rent or sale.....my investor is pretty much hands off..which is nice bc they are out of state... but even still, "too many cook in the soup" can happen, b/c it is their 100% money and their property.without the POA...I have no say in this deal.

I'm thinking a good power washing, painting the shutters and doors, maybe a railing around the porch and some landscaping will be enough to make it stand out.

I personally think people undervalue the power of EMD when making offers.
