She originally hired a lawyer to represent her so that her bank could see that she is the rightful owner of the house but he ended up cheating her out of money by charging her money to pay the mortgage balance even tho she was paying the mortgage payments each month the whole time.

A well-connected local source tells me that investors now represent almost 40% of the local cabin-rental market, where it was less than 10% before the wildfires in 2016.

I am not a broker and do not represent myself to be a broker of any kind, how do I structure my fee agreement in between a large wholesale commercial deal 40M, obviously I don't have EMD on this size of a deal and I have a buyer that is interested, how to I secure my position in the transaction and if anyone has a SUB FEE agreement that I could use. 

However, my ultimate goal is to build a portfolio of rental properties (buy and hold) for building generational wealth so that in 10 years, I can sit back and watch my legacy grow.Background/Real Estate Journey:My employment history includes working at Fannie Mae (the secondary mortgage market giant) for nearly 20 years (1987- 2006) as an administrative assistant, a call center representative in the Consumer Resource Center, and lastly as the technology manager in the call center.

If I don’t hear from you in the next 10 minutes, I will assume you aren’t attending and I will move on to my next appointment.Using this system as dramatically reduced any wasted time I used to endure as part of the showing process as well as giving me data about their timeliness/responsiveness/respect for others' time.At the showing, I collect their completed application (sent via PDF prior or filled out on premises), scan their photo ID and last 2 pay stubs.Then, I do some digging around online (social media, court records, Google) and if it looks like they are representing themselves to me accurately, I contact them to set up a "contract to hold" meeting - usually the day after the showing since qualified applicants need to be "closed" ASAP.

When I went to view the place, the listing agent's partner showed it to us and said that she would represent us in the deal while her partner would represent the seller. 

Using the map that @Joe Muchel to explain the BFE will be the number that is represented in this way.So in this example @Joe Muchel property is likely sitting at 280 ft BFE then I suggest you use this website (https://whatismyelevation.com/) and a smartphone.

@Jessica HughesThere’s some missing info...for one...what return on investment does that $2400/year in cash flow represent against your cash needed to acquire it?

Since you are a LLC, you would have to be represented by an attorney in any court proceedings, per court rules. 

The seller's realtor doesn't represent you.
