Also, the state of formation is likely where internal disputes would be brought among LLC members, so if you and a partner and/or spouse live in CA, you probably want to arbitrate in CA if the two of you had a disagreement.

Very few providers are actually internally sourcing all of their national real estate data—there is lots of copying and stealing.

De nada 😎I don't know that market at all (FYI, I don't see this is other Midwest markets where my CFO clients buy properties), but I suspect it's related to perhaps the international investors that agent may work with...they are often cash buyers as it's very difficult to borrow here if you're not a U.S. citizen.

We've seen this soooo many times in our Detroit market:(Have actually had owners choose not to do business with us because their previous PMC didn't require it - so, they thought we were the incompetent ones.Have also seen incompetent PMCs wiring funds internationally to owners - and these owners not having an ITIN, EIN or SSN!

@Jim G.Per the International Residential Code if the glazing is less then 60 inches vertically from a standing or walking surface then yes it’s required to be safety glass as it’s considered a hazardous area.  

Unfortunately, most PMC contracts are pretty vague making it a challenge to get useful information.3) A mix of the two aboveSome PMCs have internal handyman type ServiceTechs for small jobs that they bill hourly for, but get bids for any job requiring a licensed contractor.An owner should understand what type(s) of the above that their PMC uses and discuss as necessary to better understand.THE CHALLENGES OF GETTING 3 BIDSWe wanted to touch on this topic because it seems to be a pain point between PMCs and owners.In theory, it's easy to get multiple bids - you just search online for companies and contact them to get a bid. 

Wealth in real estate is usually, though not always, made by buying and holding properties, and the passage of time. 3) Consider working for a property manager or real estate investor in the summers as an intern.

Anyone that is looking at your assets is always going to need to factor in property management, so you can show that as a real expense (and really make it as high or low as you want).I work in a vertically integrated real estate and development company, and I cannot imagine how things would run if we did not have an internal property management company that essentially works for the other companies but also stands on its own.

The internal parts are garbage.

Some lenders have internal teams that do these valuations and use a 3rd party to collect the data.
