I am on Long Island and looking for a partner to play flip, rental, section 8, etc market with.Don't have time but do have money.

Luckily we have never lost a deal to it, but they don't seem to play games once they hand you a Non-Refundable EM check.  

I love to play guitar and sing.

This is where the refi comes  in to play.  

When I have kids I want to be a part of their life every day, go to any event with them, travel the word with them, play with them everyday, wake up and make breakfast for them, come home and make dinner for them and do what we want, when we want.

Hi, Victor, welcome to BP.Consider joining this FB group Western Mass REIA and attend their events when they resume. 

There seems to be an opportunity for on-site management with the current tenant in the office space...simple stuff, opening units, etc.After closing, we will likely drop a number to the prospective buyer and see what plays out. 

Would the $300 to $500 for an attorney be a smarter play? 

You can play with the numbers at any level you want.

.), that's normal.I have properties in various parts of NYC and depending on the area and the firm I use I end up with one of three scenarios:-1 month fee, landlord pays: up and coming areas of town (eg; Bushwick, Bed-Stuy a few years ago)-1 month fee, tenant pays: lower end/mass market brokerage firms, use this option for "run of the mill" properties-15% fee, tenant pays: higher end/"name brand" brokerage firms, regardless of specific area.
