I already send in my offer last week and in the end I didn't propose my terms - instead I am waiting for the seller to come up with the terms.The terms I was counting with were pretty generous and so it is possible that the seller will come up with actually lower expectations.

Thanks for your generous contribution!

Ttulia, Zillow etc to be pretty (25%) generous.

In hind sight I think that was too generous and should be more like 60/40 or even a set fee.

And the rents are about ~$3000 a month, generously, yes?

If it is family who are already successful investors they may be willing to be more generous to help you get started.Again, good luck and have a great Thanksgiving.  

He and Justin Schnettler have both given generously to us this month.

Many thanks to Brandon Turner, Joshua Dorkin and to all the posters who generously share their knowledge and experiences.

I'm really excited because I feel like I finally found my passion.Thanks for all the information you all so generously share!

Either that or you could receive your equity as compensation (even at a slight discount if you wanted to be generous) in the form of cash at the refi closing.
