I am buying sub $50K properties so the 1.5% commission I would get as an agent isn't worth the expense of all the required association dues and such.The course material was worth the $179 I spent on the online class and I feel I have a much better idea of the process and laws now. 

I'd like to avoid classroom sessions. 3) What are the costs of the materials and what materials do you recommend? 

If they do, it is really not material to the deal because whoever you assign it to is only agreeing to pay the purchase price (how the money is distributed after that shouldn't matter).  

I always have 1-2 subs per trade that is for a backup, on a time and material or fixed price contract though, I have contract with these guys on a yearly basis as an on-call based trade contractors, whenever I have a 2-3 day job these are the guys that I send out, they are mini contractors, usually work for themselves + 2-6 others.Your options now are, get a project manager to manage them, OR create a master schedule -- if you want to save a little bit of money and perhaps down the road, if you want a full time person to do it, count your payment as part of the fee --, a regular GC/PM can make this for a fee, maybe 300-1000 depending on the project size.

This provision goes away generally if they are doing something illegal or ask you to hide material defects that are known.In license law as mentioned I have seen provisions where if a buyer or the buyers broker has made a REASONABLE attempt to go through the sellers broker then they can contact the seller directly.

I'm in a pinch and need materials asap. 

The homes are safe and clean, but have antique railings (wide gaps), some knob and tube wiring, and asbestos based building materials.I am in the midst of writing my lease agreement and would like people's opinion on the benefits or necessity of adding the following disclosure statement to the Indemnity Section:"HISTORIC HOME DISCLOSURE - The Owners disclose that the Property was built before modern building codes existed with building practices and materials that were common at the time.

Been reading a lot of materials on this site as well as started my own collection of RE books based on recommendations from the forum and the podcasts!

As far as materials.  

Eventually most the marketing materials ended up in the trash.
