We believe that the COC gives a better "apples to apples" comparison for cashflow investors because: Cash flow for any property can easily be calculated using standard income and expense assumptions.For cash purchases, there will be no mortgage principal paydown since no mortgage exists.

The standard approach would be to meet them the day you close, put a lease or month to month agreement in front of them and have them sign it (after they have time to review it of course).

KC, for 2014, has a very healthy inventory by economic standards.

You can have an agent show you around while looking for houses to purchase, learn where the good and bad areas are and make sure what you see in the pictures meets your standards. 

Is there a standard for closed pool inspection?

It's standard for sellers to pay for the removal of any tanks and the decommissioning of any contaminated soil.

As a broker you are going to be held to a higher standard than the run of the mill agent, so I'd recommend talking to your legal contact to exactly what the best idea for a disclosure would be.Really that is the best idea for anyone to do.

If you are talking about someone who is a handyman and just works by the hour or talks about "cost plus" that is different.Cost plus is negotiable but 10 % is fairly standard.

That will be state specific as to standard practices. 

@Lawanda King ,This is pretty standard, but if you would simply swap out the words contractor and contractee and replace them with Buyer and Seller, it will make perfect sense.
