Does the continuing training associated with maintaining your license justify the benefits you gain (i.e. access to MLS or slightly reducing buy/sell costs)?  

Hi,I was wondering if anybody had any interesting ideas on how to generate interest in the listing outside of reducing price.  

But if you go to sell, you significantly reduce your buying pool.

Some are owned inside of a 401K plan, reducing taxes.   

Looking for a bank lender that will refinance w/ less than the typical 12 months seasoning requirement, using the new appraised value. Cincinnati / Dayton Ohio area.

Hi @Eddie Shah proximity is definitley an issue - I have reduced my farm area to 15 minutes around either my home or my office.

Which one/option will give me the greatest ability to reduce my tax liability? 

At this point I feel I cant move forward without some way to reduce risk or change the situation entirely.

I countered with seller paying all closing and prepay - about $7,000 and reducing price $5,000. 

If he's current on rent after two years, maybe you grant him another 2-year option.However you decide to do it, do not execute lease-purchase contract where a portion of his rent payment goes to reduce the purchase price on the house.
