Shoot me and pm - I have two valuation excel spreadsheets and a few RE valuation tools we use in lending ((for cap rates))....all that is free.Start tagging new transactions in keywords.....or just Tacoma...and  you will get a bird's eye on a 1000 deals a month right on this site and see the responses and the wisdom as they each newby runs into issues and opportunities. 

Good luck to you and maybe we will cross paths in the future sometime!

In your opinion, would an LLC be a good option for these transactions?

@Billy Raz working with residential loan officers vs commercial loan officers it seems the commercial guys are more transaction oriented vs (residential) relationship oriented.

My take is if an agent works for 3 months on a deal and gets it to the closing table,  they need to compensated well so that they know I'll take care of them when another one crosses their desk.   ....we don't sell real estate so I have no skin in the game.  

I realize I can modify our operating agreement to reflect this transaction and his obligation, but it doesn't' sit the same way with me as if he were signing on the dotted line at closing.Please share your thoughts and if I am overthinking this,but if something were to go south or future disagreements I feel like I would be left holding the bag in this scenario.

This is nowhere close to many of these stories, but feels good nonetheless.Purchase: $25k - 12/1/15Repair: $40kHold/Transactions/PML: $14kARV: $110kSale: $111k - 4/18/16Profit: $32k

I wonder if they'd be as interested in the property if there's a lis pendens on the title, or whether they're doing anything that is bordering on illegal by trying to coerce the seller to not honor the contract?  

@Ivan Vargas  any one looking for this information on BP is just plain silly.these are complex transactions and the only one who can guide you through them is a securities attorney in YOUR state.   

Are you looking to use it for non realtor transactions?
