And for that, they charge a fee.What I'm getting at is that, indeed, your "franchise" is comprised of your business system(s).

If I make $ 50.00 on each window , and charge $ 150.00 to install it , when you supply the window , my price to install it is $ 200.00 .

At that point the tenant may balk.If they have so much money balance in their bank account the bank will usually give them a cashiers check for free without charging them to pay you.

(I don't want to be charged interest if they fail to pay it).

I endured it because a heating person on weekend emergency will charge a gazillion dollars and I knew I could fix it myself.

An IRS audit could charge you for the full rent whether or not your aunt is paying taxes on her portion.

Hi Sophie, another thing you need to consider is that you should budget for some sort of reserves so if there is an unexpected expense or prolonged vacancy that you are still able to make your payments.

I also did not charge the tenant for my work (demo, laying tile, etc.) so he actually received an additional $300(ish) off as well.They are challenging it and demanding the entire deposit and have said they are taking me to court.

You do have a mess for the lender and title company-closing agent, they may charge a bit more in settlement clearing all those notes.

Actually, that is what note brokers do, you could take the deal to a broker and have them assist you, not sure how they would charge you, they may buy it and sell to you.A seller will have an asking price, you make an offer, not rocket science in that, the rocket science is in knowing what you're buying, not negotiating a price. :)
