DEALS WITH BIG INVESTORS

@Jeremy KerrProps for stepping out of your comfort zone.To be honest, your worth in this particular deal is whatever the experienced large scale investor thinks it is (assuming you have no finder’s fee written contract in place.)Ballpark estimate in my opinion is that finding the deal might be worth 5% to 10% of the deal pending structure of the deal.If the large scale investor is a person of character and integrity, he should provide some form of compensation given your relationship with this person.My suggestion would be to not focus on the compensation per se but try to learn as much as you can from this person during the evaluation of the deal.

Creative ways to secure a deal without upping bid price?
3 February 2022 | 1 reply
Disclaimer: I'm not necessarily encouraging these routes, just saying they are options presented by the contract...Waiving the appraisal, waiving or shortening the inspection/"option" period, waiving financing contingencies, offering a seller's leaseback, buyer paying for title, offering a stronger earnest money, asking for fewer or even no repairs, and many more.Again, each state is particular, and some markets have trending "offer structures", so make sure to connect with an agent/lender in your local market to get a better read on the state of things and what you are capable of.

Loan is commercial, they want you to close in LLC or other corporate structure. 20% down does not have to be your money.

ADA appliant services for disabled tenants?
13 May 2021 | 2 replies
I'm no ADA pro, but I feel like I remember reading in multiple books that landlords HAVE to comply with requests like this (as long as they don't significantly alter the property/structure) but all modifications are at the expense of the tenant.
