You can give me $5 from the "gift" the investor gives to you for the one email I'll have to send LOL

I'm invested with friends, my romantic partner, family and some folks who are one step short of being a stranger.  

I typically send a hand written thank you card with a gift certificate to the realtor.

Can he legally kick me back 15k for renovations or could they each gift me 7.5kAlso would it be best to finance for only 65k pay her off do my renovations and then refior just take out the loan in one lump sum.

This property was given to me as a wedding gift from my family. 

I am extremely gifted at following a system and building a team of like-minded people, both that want to market the education and those that want to simply pursue RE as their means for making a living or a combo group that wants to do both.

I also recall reading that if the lender charges below-market-rate interest, the IRS may treat the loan as a gift loan. 

It's a rare gift; don't squander it. 

I dont know about you, but thats preety easy money. so why not gift or provide 1-2k to a client to sweeten their deal, Imean they did just line your pocket, and save you time. ;-)Anyway, this trategy is based on what works in my market. tweak it and make it work for yours.

Lately I have entertained the idea that being handy might not be the best quality of a investor.Obviously this depends on your investing goals..But➡️Here is the question.. how can a “handy” or “gifted” builder grow without getting in his or her own way?
