This is my first post here and hopefully, I'll get some meaningful advice too! 

and that is meaningful for me. 

The Decedent's estate consists of all assets, both real estate and personal property, along with all debts, both secured and unsecured.The heirs' interest consists of the equity in real estate and personal property.In order to generate any meaningful amount of money for heirs, a property would need to have enough equity to pay both the cost of sale and cost of holding and probating. 

However, it's not meaningful unless you've forced equity into the property through the renovation.

I think you are pulling money out of the deal somehow, but what money are you extracting from the property?

It's important to always remember this when trying to extract value out of a realtor, if they can provide any

Developer has run out of cash, your odds of suing him and receiving a meaningful recovery are 10%.

It's simple really.If going to a seminar and paying money will take MOST of your net worth then don't do it.People think these classes are the silver bullet to getting rich.Then they get mad when it doesn't happen and they are almost broke.I would say in that case KEEP YOUR MONEY and do mailers for leads and read FREE material in books and on the internet.Find local investors you can learn from where you want to do business.If you are making money at substantial rates and want to pay for a seminar then it won't be the end of the world for you if it doesn't pan out.It's no secret that many companies will get people at the seminars to "source deals" for them to partner on and use the fees from seminars to buy more properties and get richer.It is NOT for the benefit of those attending the seminar.I do not know this company and I am speaking in generalities.You can find these systems for 30 cents on the dollar usually selling for resale on Craigslist,Ebay,etc.When I bought a broker course on generating listings first getting into real estate the regular price was 997.00.I went in with another broker and bought a used one from the same year on Ebay for 300 so we paid 150 apiece.A year later I resold it once extracting all info for 250 to another broker.So if you are great at and enjoy sourcing information you can do it for cheap or almost free.If you want it in a nice little package you will pay heavily for it.A common tactic of seminars is to throw almost all the "meat" out there and then when you buy the course it just resays about 80 percent of what was already said with a lot of fluff thrown in.

Because such firms are not the IRA custodian and limited by rule, they can actually provide meaningful guidance when it comes to understanding and following the IRS rules.
