SWFL We Have A ProblemA year and a half ago I sent an update with a warning that there were several factors that were potentially going to impact in SWFL real estate including immigration laws that were passed.

Quote from @Laura Newton: The statements they provide never match the 1099-MISC I get at the end of the yearGot it, yes I’ve seen this problem as well. 

I think trying to apply MF in the same way was the problem as they have different things to consider.

RE calculators that use a percentage of rent for these numbers exasperates the problem.   A

Paying 30% would not be a problem, as long as I can invest leveraging the high score. 

Credit, financial risk, legal, tax, time, insurance and the ability to get clear title are all part of the problem as well.Selling a Subject To, to someone on a wrap, is very dangerous to all involved, IMHO.

Otherwise, I can't see it as being a problem as your grandfather is in the loops and it sounds like the mortgage is being paid. 

That will locate and document the nature of the problem, as well as letting you know how deep it is.

I had a problem a couple of years ago with one of the platforms (Booking).

But if you've got an income problem (as in too much) you can forgo the commission and save some tax dollars which can then be used to buy more real estate without paying tax on it first.
