Here is some info on flat fee MLS listing:http://www.trulia.com/voices/Home_Selling/Will_BUYER_real_estate_agents_call_flat_fee_MLS_li-41510

There are brokers around my area who will list on the MLS for a flat fee of about $300 so we saved close to $10,000 not using an agent.

My very best number one tenant in a commercial workshop who'd never missed a beat paying over $20k a month over 20 years stopped paying altogether for 2 years and started paying intermittently every second month at 40% of his previous rent.

When we bought the house it was flatted out into an upstairs and downstairs apartment.

If you have some experience with negotiating forms and the market is really moving, find a flat fee realty company that puts your home in the MLS and you do everything else.

Flat fee listing services are becoming very popular from what I've seen.

@Mitch- I think I know the guy you mentioned in your story.I do quite a few sub 2 deals with realtors involved and tell them up front that they need to take a smaller flat fee or monthly payments.

I can't give legal advice.In my apartments we have towing notices posted by a towing company.They will come and take away for free and impound.The sign has to be in an easily seen space.We call them if we want one towed for no tag,flat tire,doesn't start,etc.You didn't get a signed affidavit from the property manager that it would be okay until the 30th.If all you have is a pass that is pretty weak.You don't even know if the pass is in the impound lot.If you made waves they might have already through the pass in the trash for the complex.

Over time, rents go up, values increase, while your expenses stay relatively flat.

China cabs. google maple shaker cabs, they are sold flat in a box.
