In the process, I would either lose this potential tenant and yet would have gone thru the process esp. when I wanted to avoid getting engaged with the city Like someone's comment elsewhere - the tenants who come thru this program are not well earning, so what is the probability they will 1) stay longer& not have to be evicted and or 2) the payments in time/ partial 3) will they trash the place

If you can find one, the very best option would be to find a mentor that is actively investing in commercial deals and work alongside.

They allow new investors to learn from experienced ones in a structured and safe environment.One of the key benefits of such programs is the ability to participate in deals alongside more experienced investors.

@Dave Foster is the expert to engage before the sale occurs. 

Banks and credit unions can also offer flexibility for investors that engage in strong relationship-building strategies, offering discounts and solid loans in exchange for borrowers willing to use the institution for other purposes (savings accounts, etc.).

It’s flexible and offers templates specifically for real estate professionals, making it easy to showcase your properties and create engaging content like blogs and resources.For the best results, working with an SEO strategist can help optimize the site, improve your search rankings and bring more visitors your way.If you have any questions or want to chat more about this, I’m happy to help.

If you call them all you will probably get 20 different prices for the same engagement. 

Sometimes if there isn't an agent involved (or an agent that isn't properly engaged) the software will use incorrect assumptions due to errors in public record and available data. 

Looking forward to engaging with you all and taking steps toward building a successful real estate portfolio. 

The agreement should last 4-5 days.If I don't like that home, and I think I want to engage a buyer agent for more in depth services over a longer period of time, then I will entertain other buyer representation agreements, but I will not agree to over 2%, which is the maximum recommended by the Consumer Federation of America.To be fair, if my needs required my buyer agent to show me 30+ homes, or preview them since I am out of town, or something else that took an extraordinary amount of the agent's time, I would consider more than 2%.
