The fees I charged as a LTR landlord more than made up for additional cleaning expenses.

Given this new law it concerns me as a buyer and I want to know if agent fees can be written off whether through a personal deal or through an LLC.

you could do that but there are stiff fees for cash advances but I guess if you do that and your credit score doesn't take a huge hit then fine but not the way I would do it.

PM me if you want to discuss investing.

How do I apply my assignment fee? 

As the prices got higher and higher cities like huntsville and chattanooga became the topic of discussion for buy and hold investors and flippers.

@Bob SislowAre there development fees to build on the property?

I was listening to this episode of the BP podcast that discussed which renovations & improvements for flips and BRRRRs are the best to add value to a property.

Bottomline is having a good talk with all parties openly discussing how to handle this in a way all parties can be happy and lessen surprises.Hope it turns into a wonderful opportunity to get better acquainted with your in-laws. 

If you want to discuss these things in more detail I would be glad to work through them with you, feel free to message me.
