In the instant situation I would be interested to see whether the title company's "approved" list of notaries happened to be staff on hand who make a few extra hundred $ for the title company.it drives me nuts when I close deals and the vendors want to use OSS out of FLA.. they want a mobile notary.. well they also want to charge me for said mobile notary..

Every where I turn, someone is charging at least $2K for a mentor and to have access to videos, etc. 

We did find a neighboring AC guy to come look at it tonight for $85, but I’m thinking that one hour AC type places charges $200-300 for after hours calls?

Actually, these properties don't come up too often so there's practically no comps.They are cash cows and the owners know it so they charge a lot more then the house would typically be worth. 

They should not charge you any fees unless you actually close a deal with them.

I charge extra for people to watch me3.

I see no reason why you could not charge them for that if you determine it is not your fault.Some states have laws surrounding how warranties are to be worded and offered.

You may only have 6-8 lines to paint, but the vendor probably has a minimum trip charge that he is going to bill.

We stay full and charge top dollar.List on more than just Airbnb to maximize your rental potential.We have a card welcoming them by name and a sweet treat in the fridge.Check on them after they arrive and make sure everything is good and see if they have any questions.

Here are the details:Duplex will be vacant when we close on property (the owner is moving out of the unit)Rents are potentially at least $700 conservatively, or $1400/mo. once rented outThe duplex is worth between $85k to $100k (I had a hard time coming up with exact comps)I estimate a 45% expenses (on the high end) which put me at a 11.63% CAP rateRepairs are about $35,000 (it needs all kinds of updating, but has good bones and appeal once finished)I offered $45,000 purchase payment with the following terms:$25,000 down payment and $20,000 in 18 months18 months of NO PAYMENTSA 12% interest charged only on the balanceBalloon at the end of the 18 month period (i.e. $20k balance)Therefore, 12% interest on the balance ($20,000) is $2,400Total seller gets is $47,400 after 18 months.
