My in-house property manager was just asking if there's a simpler way we can start managing calendar inputs so they tie to projects and provide a global view.

I feel strongly this should happen, and there is no reason why it should be offensive, etc, to ask for this.

Marco,If you go to a local bank and apply for a commercial loan in the name of a LLC or not, the bank will look at both your debt to income ratio and global debt service ratio meaning they evaluate cash flow of the property + debt to income.

Those agreements are negotiated at a very high corporate level and are often 3 - 5 year engagements that insert the tenant rep brokerage firm on a national or even global level.You have a few options:Refuse to pay the fee outright and hope your deal doesn't blow up.

Myself and another BP member's posts deleted for offering help to Nick, even though we weren't licensed agents or selling anything, just wanted to lend a hand, my point is expect your post to be deleted but don't take offense, I think it is just how their script for scrubbing works.

As a global investor who survived 3 currency crisis in Russia i can tell you - right now (with 3-5 year horizon) the dollar is the nicest house in the bad neighborhood.

And I mean no offensive to my many licensed friends.....it's just a matter of time.
