We recently put a property that was down to the studs into escrow at fair market value months before ever being completed. this benefited the seller greatly because the property was locked into escrow before the project being completed, and is minimizing days on the market which translates to lower holding costs. combined with a great offer it was win win for the seller due to profit maximizing, buyer because they were able to customize a home and negotiate a price they were comfortable with, and probably lastly the agent because it took much more work then a normal listing due to milestones and repairs being made as the deal went on.just some notes on the subject which i know can be debated all day long.cheers!

From 5,000 feet, I have my W-2, my wife's W-2, my consulting business, her translation income, and 5 streams rental income.

@Jay HinrichsYeah there are a ton of different brokers which translate into different desk fees and commission structures, some flat fees like your, some cap models like Keller Williams, this one was a rough example of Coldwell Banker. 

Matt Katsaris think we are getting lost in translation.

If they care, this does not translate in wanting to pay more rent.

It's a project manager for a general contractor doing small ($10,000) and large jobs ($60mil), so it is directly related to construction and contracts, which translate to real estate. 

Numbers can look great on paper, but that won't always translate to real life success.

A loose translation would be, "Buyer Beware".

I build them all the time.4 units fall under 1-4 family residential lending which translates to cheap long-term interest rates.As far as management is concerned, David Tilney is hands down THE BEST.

Higher returns translate to greater risk.
