How do I know the agents or realtor giving me all the authentic information? 

The image below shows our "product" (foreground bags, triple wrapped in 6Mil and double taped) compared to the industry common "rope off the property, put plastic down, get in your space suit,  and blast away with sledge hammers... and collect $20K" debris dump.

Haha @Darren Sager - I know you are busy closing a few, bringing a few to market, and packing your bags for your impending visit at the Leybovich's Casita in gorgeous Chandler AZ.

For its been a mixed bag...mostly good, but some not so good.

and I don't want a bunch of frozen stuff..I got one of those packages as a gift and there was one Radish in a plastic bag I thought what a waste..But what I really loved was buying our Teslas on line.... now that is the bomb.. no more car dealer BS.the price is the price and you can literally have a new car bought in less than 30 minutes if your paying cash. then they e mail you when its in the show room and ready to be picked up which depending on where your at or what model can be a matter of next day or a week or so out..

Whether or not your splitting partner has some liability for leaving you with the bags, is a matter of law based on which state you live in.

Another cheap option I've done for meetings is ordering some $5 footlongs from subway, a few bags of chips, etc.

Maybe put a new strategy in my bag of tricks.

Comm. 2500 Escrow & Title 1500 Termite 3000 For buyers closing cost 60000 Rehabers Purchase Price 1500 Rehabers Buying Costs 10000 Repairsand a profit of 16500Many times your buyer will tell you that it is a cash transaction and then for whatever reason they need Hard Money, they very well can be around 10000 with 6 months holding, that is why you need to determine what their money costs are so you don't get into a contract and have them back out.Cash buyer with no $ cost= 16500Hard Money with 10000 cost= 6500If they know what the are doing fine if not many times they will back out leaving you holding the bag.

With the MLS drying up, I am concerned investors/newbies may go to the county sheriff sale to get a deal and bid on a 2nd lien & left holding the bag.
