Should I include a time and materials with a guaranteed maximum?

@Jim Keller, if you want to get the real ARV out of a property in LA county, I'll guarantee that you'll need to spend at least $80K, including the high-end finishes.

Sometimes inspectors will cut a deal because they know you lost money on the first property that didn't workout.Generally in any listing agreement or the MLS it usually says " Information deemed to be reliable but not guaranteed ".This means whatever it says may be factual but do your own research to discover for yourself.

Also, if you decide to use leverage - non-recourse financing must be utilized since you are not allowed to provide personal guarantee for your IRA. 

Mediocre deals increase it and bad deals guarantee problems.

(probably need personal guarantees)So to be clear, you need more than someone on a internet forum telling you to put a 10% rate on a 10 year term and list it on www.xyz.com.  

If you're successful and your earnings are in 7-figure territory every year, I can all but guarantee you're paying at least $100k in taxes every year that you don't need to.  

There's a 90 day guarantee on the receipt.

No guarantees this will turn into a sale, but a hell of a lot nicer odds talking one-on-one with the Power of Attorney, with very limited competition.

Many lenders in the commercial space allow loans to be made to the LLC (and personally guaranteed by the operator - you in this case).
