In fact, I wanted to avoid mentioning it, but we went as far as compensating Will for a month's rent just to help him a little. 4.

I just happen to be compensated based on a share of the profits.

To compensate for that risk they charge a certain interest.

My #1 mistake in JVing was to not handle how the person who actually does the work gets compensated. 

I agree with JohnContact them first; unfortunately most people who reach out to us as hosts are looking for compensation in exchange for a more favorable review. 

This induces higher wages (which we've seen as well), which leads to employers having to raise prices to compensate (this is inflation, which we've seen), which leads to interest rate hikes to slow inflation (which we've seen), which leads to reduced spending. 

Basic finance teaches that riskier investments should offer higher rewards, but most MLS properties do not offer enough reward to compensate for the risk. 

However, in WA it is only true that I must be a broker or work under a broker -if I seek compensation for my kindly deed of managing the absent owner’s property.

If i'm buying property at the peak, I want to hyper-compensate for that by means of earning the highest yield possible.

@Derek DaunIf the tenant doesn't bring up compensation then you don't need to.
