Classic case of the clueless trying to sound sophisticated.  

Stephen it depends on the sophistication of the seller and level of the property.

Hey Everyone,I have an idea, but I wanted to run it past all you smart, sophisticated, and highly intelligent people to make sure I'm not bat crazy.

Depends on how sophisticated (or not) your seller is.

The terms are often onerous, and it isn't news there are scams with startup lenders especially seeing how hot the market is across the US, it takes a certain level of sophistication to deal with these types.

The seller is not very sophisticated at all.

My house sold in five days at full price, while hers STILL sat on the market.In my experience and humble opinion, as long as you have a demographic that appreciates it (and the buying public gets more sophisticated every day), good, tasteful, updated design sells every time.

@Anthony Z. first off, your W4 is the form in which you determine the number of allowances you should claim so that your company's payroll department can then determine how much tax should be withheld from your paycheck.Your W2 is the form you receive at year end from the company which provides an earnings summary.

@George Wines so as a general rule of thumb a non-sophisticated owner cannot hire a contractor and fix a property up and make more money then simply selling it as is.

I know Jeff doesn't promote it a lot so I'm promoting it on his behalf, and hopefully he will put me on his payroll.
