What do you suggest in this case ?

I suggest making copies of the dec pages of all your policies and emailing them to multiple agencies to compare.  

AND more on one side than the other What do you suggest for the door color?  

@ John Mathewson - I am interest in your Excel spreadsheet as well.

I suggest you first get your ducks in a row and organize better finance. 

A good suggestion, though.

- you make 50% of the net profit - that is net less advertising or expensive - so if the expenses are $1,000 you would make $9,500.00 and I would make the same.The expenses are usually the cost of advertising the property for sale.So............... it you are ready to begin creating leads - this is what I suggest you do ---Farm neighborhoods to look for FSBO's, send me as many expired listings as you can in the neighborhoods where we are going to invest, Go to housing court 2-3 times a week to listen to the cases and meet landlords after their case is called, run some ads in the local papers (I will design the ad for you), get me a list of all the local auctioneers in the community, put flyers on super market bulletin boards, ask 5 people a day if they know of anyone interested in selling their real estate.Look for commercial and business real estate for sale - get me all that information and we'll make a call to get information and make them an offer (you present the offer for us)Later in the "Mentor - Apprentice relationship we will advertise on radio.Any questions?

If you go forward I would suggest you both agree to a value before anyone starts painting and put it in writing. 

Former church with the upstairs newly remodeled and leased up at $1800 per month with excellent, long term tenants.-  Basement is unfinished but has some existing plumbing, garages, finished walls,  etc. and I conservatively estimate $30,000 to build out each of 2 additional  units

If anyone here has any suggested reading, I would really appreciate it!
