If they want to sue the window guy they hired to get their money back, that's their choice, but that's between them.

That being said, I have a couple questions regarding the exit strategy for my personal residence.1) Is it more beneficial to complete all the work, minor and major (IE: Windows, doors, trim, interior lighting, etc.) and try to sell for top value while obviously putting a bunch of money into it?

Give the Seller choices.

I had the joy of watching the neighbors house get raided when I was working on one of my properties, I started rethinking my investment choices LOL.Look closely there are 2 officers with guns drawn.

If they own the property free and clear and you pointed out $50k in repairs to drive the price down, offer $27k because that is your MOA but sell for $37k.yes there will be upset and feel as if you got over on them and make them feel like that is $10 more they could have made if they would have just waited and stuck to there guns.Now if they are facing foreclosure and have no choice but to sell because they do not have the capital to stay a float.

I'd suggest not getting into the popular thinking or promotion of doing a 1031 until you get with a good tax advisor, one who has no interest in you doing one, and ensure that your marriage to the property type will last. 1031s have a valid place in your planning when it is truly beneficial, it's just that it isn't always.

., I give them high marks for being honest enough to admit that this is not a case of the evil landlord beating up on the poor tenant, but simply a win/win where the tenants and investors are all stakeholders in the business and have a mutually beneficial relationship.Frank Rolfewww.MobileHomeUniversity.com(855) 879-2738

In class they approximated $10,000 but they aren't confident of this amount.b) Does this strategy also exist for Roth IRAs and if so which plan type would be more beneficial to distribute from?

They'll dig up the goods and they can show it just as well as someone who doesn't even know the property.I can't imagine its beneficial in the long term to burn bridges filing complaints against listings agents if for some reason you end up having to negotiate with them in the future, you'll be screwed.

Would it be beneficial to have me paid by the buyer at closing as a consultant instead?
