Bonus points if it can help you manage cleaning tasks for any staff you have.Also after one or two properties you'll want to find a way to automate the setup and deletion of Smart Lock codes. 

Whenever they throw a bonus in there, that means some part of the package is something they've been hoping to get rid of for a while lol.Falls into the same category as the "I'll only sell you A if you buy A & B both at the same time", where B is a freaking junker and they can't dump it lol.

And I have to guess that the stock or other bonuses he got from TripAdvisor and Facebook far outweigh the appreciation he is making on his SFH.My advice for someone in your shoes: keep living cheaply with a bunch of roommates, save up as much cash as you can, and wait a couple of years.

Also another cool feature to the property was the sunroom right off the kitchen that we though would have good potential for extra space so we put down flooring and a new fan out there for bonus space. 

They will usually be a more junior agent which is fine as you can both grow together.I actually bonus my agent after deals close...I send a check to his house with a thank you note.

Purchase price: $205,179 Cash invested: $22,632 Contributors: Corby Goade My 3rd BRRRR property in Boise to date - this one had an unpermitted finished bonus room.

My calculations were to make >$200 I had to get no higher than 185K so I offered $177,900 as the opening offer and asked for a single condition in the sale: please remove the hot tub.Owner came back with 190, after thinking hard and talking with both the realtor and my wife we came back with a generous $186,900 offer and withdrew the hot request (I figured I could give it away).

Offering 80% share of the acquisition fee and 20% of GP equity ongoing is very generous (although the fees are a little low in the example) almost too good to be true so make sure you get all agreements in writing before you share the deal with them. 

(Just ask a local real estate agent.)Note: Be sure to give that neighbor a generous "thank you" gift (cash works fine) if you end up doing this deal.

Added bonus, built in dog sitters, plant waterers, and house sitters when we travel.
