hello,I am not sure where I even got it, maybe from a request form a website, but I have been receiving stuff from Richard Roop's group, which apparently are mentors and REI trainers.

Yes, I've been reading the regulations and it does appear to be very strictly regulated in CA, as a matter of fact, their are certain bars against receiving ANY advanced fee by a mortgage "consultant" when doing these loan modifications.

Hey everyone . . . it has again come to my attention that the site's email notification system for discussions has not been fixed, as I had thought.

I have heard MANY of he prominent national gurus speak at REIA conferences, etc and almost without exception they are nothing but cheerleaders.If you pay attention to whatever you're attending this weekend, you'll find that they really don't say anything (other than the obvious) but they spend all their time cheerleading!

I understand this is not a legal forum but would like to hear from experience investors.What is the best way to handle finders fees; i.e if you have an associate looking to move a property and you bring her a buyer, how do you receive a fee and protect yourself in the process?

Also however, in that 3 year period you will reduce morg. balance and receive depreciation to increase your return rate.

Attention Members:We've resolved the issue that was causing our Topic Notification emails to fail.

The way to make it legal is for the person to pay you for each lead (such as 10.00 per lead) and not make your payment based on the outcome of the situation.To clarify my previous post I agree with Primo_Coach that you should receive payment for the lead and not have payment contingent on a closing.

I never once received written notice.

You do not have to try to get them under contract, you could refer them to another investor in your area and receive a referal fee.
