If you run around talking to people, but your talk lacks any substance, you're just wasting air.

Hey BP Community, I was wondering who all out there has had experience with converting your rental property into a group home or sober house for ex-substance abuse clients. 

So it's just spelling out what the co-op commission is so we're all in the open and the seller understands that I am compensating the other agent fairly and not harming their chances at a solid offer by going cheap on the co-op fee. 

My first step would be to refuse those two requests and offer to let him out of the lease "no harm, no foul", if he is not happy with the arrangement.  

The listing agent forwards me an inspection report that states the beam in subflooring shows signs of harmful water penetration and of termite damage.

I have been approached by a for profit company that would like to rent the whole house as a halfway house for substance abuse. 

When you call on a smaller brokerage, they will most likely not offer you as much substance, but they can pay you more.

Here is one I wrote, and you should read my other Blog posts too, and search all of BP.https://www.biggerpockets.com/blogs/10670/71992-education-and-mentoring-is-key-to-success-in-real-estate-investingHang in there, no harm done.

If I was your Broker I would just fire you & be done with this nonsense before your association begins to harm my firm's image.

I’ve got my own stories to add to the others on here, stories of being burned by people who said they knew how to do stuff, but then turned out to be either substance-abusing con artists or they just did as much as they felt like doing and then disappeared, leaving the job half done.
