What type of investing have you been involved in this year?

Also, it's good to watch out for the clause involving what happens in case of a "sale" - sometimes they will want you to list the property with them if deciding to sell and still in a lease agreement.

Just make sure that you can figure in nice profit margins for everyone involved BEFORE you bring the deal to them.

Like personal credit, there are several factors involved there.

Finding a partner will be difficult, but If the property/deal is right, I'm sure there will be people lined up to get involved.

If a realtor is involved, it will be safer, and I suggest running a title check on it, but you don't have to have one, and they cost money.

You benefit by having a far less involved management and maintenance problem, motivated occupant, far less issue with "rent" being late, and if you do it right, you can duplicate this cookie cutter anywhere and make big bucks. 8)The way I learned how to do this: www.landtrust.netI became a member of the NARS system and for me, it takes away most of the problems you find with renting the traditional way.

With regards to severing the agreement earlier than 30 days or not; it probably isn't worth the potential disagreement over one month's management fees, and absolutely isn't worth it if you end up needing to involve a lawyer to settle any dispute.

We love people who get involved in the discussion, and would welcome your input.

If you want to hide the identity of the true owners, there are ways to do this using trusts, but it requires the involvement of several people--you cannot be both the trustor and the trustee for example.
