If my client wants to pay it its up to them but I wont.. two reasons one is personal I feel most sellers this is there only asset or majority of their net worth and its just unconscionable but 90% of wholesaler frankly its about them they could careless and I know others will get on here and say they are not that way.. but as one who funds these deals probably over 100 deals a year with a wholesaler fee on it..

I know this is not all owners, but a majority fall into this camp.

that we’ve learned in our 24 years, managing almost 700 doors across the Metro Detroit area, including almost 100 S8 leases:Class A Properties:Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, 3-5 years for positive cashflow, but you get highest relative rent & value appreciation.Vacancy Est: Historically 10%, 5% the more recent norm.Tenant Pool: Majority will have FICO scores of 680+ (roughly 5% probability of default), zero evictions in last 7 years.Class B Properties:Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, decent amount of relative rent & value appreciation.Vacancy Est: Historically 10%, 5% should be applied only if proper research done to support.Tenant Pool: Majority will have FICO scores of 620-680 (around 10% probability of default), some blemishes, but should have no evictions in last 5 yearsClass C Properties:Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, high cashflow and at the lower end of relative rent & value appreciation.

I tend to agree with Jay Hinrichs that forcing bankruptcy by many lawsuits will not be beneficial for the majority.

Any major headaches that come with that?

It wasn’t a massive deal—our expected assignment fee was $10,000—but when you’re growing a business, every opportunity matters.Everything seemed to be moving smoothly until the title search revealed a major roadblock: the mortgage discharge couldn’t be cleared because the person who needed to sign off was deceased.

That’s a major concern.

We'll see where it goes either way I am determined to design build something to make into a successful STR business.oh yeah and currently taking a major L on QQQ shorts that I was probably too early into.

Real Estate Investing is for the vast majority of time not classical "investing", it's a business.

If you’re paying off more than $1,500/mo I’d probably keep it barring any major upcoming capex. (3-5 years out so buyer wouldn’t automatically ask for it to be repaired at sale.)Good luck either way.
