What is your objective?

Typically wouldn't bother asking, but that's a pretty unique last name you've got.

@Tim W.AIA contracts are great but I recommend still having an attorney review it.Having worked on both sides (GC and Owner) we have always modified some of the language in the AIA contracts - they are great boiler plate templates but each project is unique and recommend every contract be reviewed by an attorney.

After reading through some of the forums it sounds like my experience is not unique.

This can be offset by actual income earned by the student, what may be allowed is entirely objective and considering the guarantor's assets and credit can be considered too.

If you truly have a unique ability to obtain a "higher" price through on line marketing ability, then all you really need to do is option real estate at market value, and sell for a higher price.

It is always a good thing when each partner can provide unique skills, expertise, experience and views to the table, which it sounds like your partnership achieves.

There's also another rather unique factor that should start to come in to play as well and thats the next big boom generation.
