on the chance that something comes to you somehow - you'd have to snap it up / put it under contract immediately, and again, that's very difficult to do remotely. 

But then again, me personally, that too is useless, because the best way to find cash buyers is getting good contracts signed so you don;t need to pay for a software to find them.

Example, buying a vacant lot from a neighbor and simply explaining that someone else will be on the contract in a few days is not easy.

Net Sale - Is the contract price, minus the closing costs and commissions.adjust cost basis - net sale = net gainYour gain is made up of profit and depreciation recapture.

Yes itwill cost you 4 to 7% commission, but you will have more buyers,don’t have to worry about the legal transaction process, and youwill never question if you got top dollar after you sale.I.

I've seen landlords live in blissful ignorance for 5-10 years due to dumb luck, then their world comes crashing down and they lose everything.I have a book, there are some in the BP bookstore, or you can check out one of my personal favorites, Every Landlord's Legal Guide by NOLO.

The AP has to be open, notorious and hostile...those terms have a legal meaning and essentially it is that you as the owner have been fully deprived of your right to the property.Absent those items above, it sounds like at best they have another legal right which is a "prescriptive easement".

Hoping that my brother in law will be able to build and manage a contracting team. 

I consulted with a real estate lawyer a few times this year who said it's very hard to sue for negligence and they advised against taking legal action, especially since the property manager at least followed through on the eviction and repairs.I've now asked the property management company to apply a $4k credit for all the challenges I've had working with them.

Brokers acting as paper pushers and contract writers will obviously charge alot less than a broker taking on all responsibilities including marketing.
