(Btw...I'm going to structure my business around wholesaling or rehabbing REO's with private lending money with the help of my parents...I'm only 21 right now)

(The CAP looks to be just under 12% at 10% vacancy - still trying to verify.)Currently I'm withholding the address from all potential buyers until they make a good-faith and temporarily refundable deposit.

Oh, and I love to spoil my grand children rotten then send them home to their parents.

, and having watched my parents with their rentals -- a previously on-time renter is paying later and starting to short-pay the rent are both symptoms of getting "behinder".

I don't need any with even less than normal common sense.And just as a matter of principle, I won't accept deadbeat parents who refuse to pay their child support.

Nick, This would be the bomb if I could actually view the docs :) I am withholding my vote until you can perform :) ROFL .....maybe it is my ineptitude when it comes to the magic of e-docs.

I'm just starting to invest in real estate and am wondering if I should just take the 23K to roll into a self-directed IRA or the +18K and use to fund my LLC for real estate after tax withholding?

I suppose the best thing to do is consult legally to see if we can withhold our annual fees enmasse.Jack McG Many times, in HOAs that are solvent with mostly filled units, the residents can petition the HOA to obtain the financing as a buyer, or some of the owners in the community, and buy the bank out, as a short sale or discounted note.

Hey Melinda, My parents did a good job raising me, and luckily, as my grandmother so elegantly used to put it "I wasn't born yesterday"Anyway, IMO - I've fended off about 3 separate cases where I believe this would have been the outcome.

If you pay over X amount, you need to withhold as well, unless they are an independent contractor.
