That way, as you work with them and they get to know you, you can ask them to refer people to you.As far as the legalities of paying them a referral fee, THEY will know and understand better than you how to structure such an arrangement so it doesn't violate any laws or ethics.

Pat Roszkowski How to sue for back rent from a tenant
1 September 2011 | 15 replies
Chase bank where I have my accounts will hold the cashiers check for so many days before crediting it.I wouldn't let any tenant move in until payment was verified.Chase has told me they have even had social security checks bounce from the government.I am not joking...............On what you can do to collect you first have to get a judgment.The in most areas you can go for a bank levy or a wage garnishemnt.For the bank levy you cannot touch social security,pension,or retirement funds.If those are pulled out the money will be reversed back to their accounts and credited.On a wage garnishment you can only collect up to 25% of income from their check and that's if they make over the federal poverty guidelines.If they don't make over the guidelines you can't do squat.If they make over 25% that is the total that can be taken out period.So if 2 garnishments are before yours you get what is left over out of that 25%.Generally the people will not stay at the job and will move to an all cash job to avoid the garnishment or they will file BK.There are collection companies that will buy the debt from you outright for very cheap or you can have an arrangement where they get so much of a percent of whatever they collect and the rest is yours.You can set it and forget it and put your time to other uses.Judgments are easy to get and very hard and time consuming to collect.The moral of the story is to screen your tenants very wisely and make sure the money is in hand.When I sell stuff on Craigslist I only take cash and I have a pen to check the bills.Some might call that over the top but I have never been scammed.Just like my friend said I was paranoid always looking for cops so I wouldn't get a ticket.My driving record is perfect and he has 2 tickets in the last year jacking up his insurance rates.no legal advice

Kevin Nichols Bank calling in loan - owner financing

If it was the buyer, you probably won't have an issue doing something different, if you brought it up, it might be sticky as you should have disclosed the matter before going there with the details of the proposed deal.If you have a business entity in title, a transfer of the entity would be less stressful, but your attorney should consider some of the deeper issues, you staying in that company can be arranged with your interest being changed through the operations side and control going to the new buyer/partner.Well, this is evidence that lenders do care and may be willing to go to the mat with the due on sale that many want to ignore. :)
