````````````````The upfront agreementIn order for the upfront agreement to work, you need to frame it as a very fair, 2 way business agreement.Here is a possible exchange...After the walk through, you're sitting at the kitchen table, looking at both mom and dad the sellers.I fold my hands and I looked very solemn, I try to give them is kind of an expression is possible, as sincere as possible, I have my legal pad, a pen, and a blank letter of intent in front of me.I also have a folder of comps and rental information.So here's the upfront agreement...Investor: "So Bob and Susan thanks for the walk through, I just wanted to phrase how I'd like to see our business relationship work.

@Hari Narayanan   What did you end up doing?

All you really need is a legal pad, a flashlight, a smart phone with mortgage calc, and your business card.

Is it a family home or a bachelor pad? As

@Steven Ha Yes, HAR is Houston Association of Realtors.

You could also pour a concrete pad and possibly bolt the condensor down to the pad. As

I can cover a half a dozen counties as well, if it falls in HAR I cover can it.

Wood trim works fine, but in the long run it will expand and contract more than hari trim an the caulk joints will separate sooner.

WARNING: the stench was really locked into this carpet and pad. As

You need an accurate rehab number, then you need a 10% pad, as things inevitably come up.
