James and his people who manage the program are nice and give basic sales and negotiation advice but not much that moves the needle in any situation.

A friend of mine in San Antonio had a similar situation.. she inherited a vague commercial lease and learned that the rules differ big-tiime from residential.

(We're not desperate to sell) With being new to the selling side, I'm curious what is standard for agent commissions in an off market situation.

Several of my investor clients have dealt with similar situations in North Carolina, and here’s my take based on those experiences.First, you’re right about the legal framework: NC landlords must make reasonable efforts to re-rent the property, but tenants remain liable for the rent until a new tenant is found.

Best regards, This approach is neutral and objective, focusing strictly on the criteria, and avoids discussing any specifics about the applicant’s personal situation.

We have 3 attorneys we use depending on location & situation. 

I wanted to share a bit about my situation and get some advice from those more experienced in real estate.My wife and I live in Irvine, Orange County, as renters.

Stressed with lots to figure out in terms of getting systems in place and making repairs with not much time to get everything done, but I'm confident in the deal.  

I had to hold back my chuckle, she didn't recognize the irony of the situation.  

For me, I am a little hesitant because I would be in a situation where I would be trying to secure traditional lending (which should be very feasible given credit scores & what $$ amount I am pre-approved up to from my banks), meaning that I assume I would be forced into using my first-time homebuyer loan incentives.
