If you lose a deal, don't worry..the next one (the same one) will pop up...literally around the corner...it will just have a different address.

And to not get burned when investing with an emphasis on appreciation, you need to understand your market down to a gnats-*** level of detail and watch it like a hawk. 

@Eric Schrader It's hard to talk about the deal without knowing the deal details.

I can provide you with more info on that and give you a referral to a good attorney specializing in asset protection and partnership structuring.Before proceeding, I suggest to have all or most of following questions clarified:Joint Ventures – checklist / questionnaireBefore you can start to set up the legal framework, there are various issues that need to be addressed.

Quick question,

So I usually calculate 3% in my deals analysis for closing costs. Or that was what’s recommended to me from other users here on BP. So my question is, what does that include? I know sometimes the sell...

Just kind of want to know the details before potentially attempting.Just want to know details such as how long it takes, where to refinance, what are the chances that my refinance doesn’t go through, etc...

Hi Aman, do you mean Darby Borough, Darby Township, or Collingdale (Darby mailing address)?

If you want more details to see if you are a good fit for the program, let me know and we can set up a phone call to discuss.

Keep the place in great condition at all times and when a tenant has an issue, address it right away. 

Think of all the things that could go wrong and see if the lease addresses them: unauthorized pets or tenants, early termination, security deposit, lease violations, late rent, eviction, lawn maintenance, parking, etc.5.
