Was the transaction closed with a professional or privately?

I am slowly transitioning from a landlord that tenants knows owns the property and has his cell phone number into a professional appearing, buildium using landlord so as to remove as much personal contact as possible.  

The best way to ensure the client receives a marketable note is to have it originated professionally.

Many of the real estate professionals that i'm talking to have never heard of double closings etc..or never done them.Any recommendations anyone?

I do the rental on most of them but I have a professional manager do the apartment building due to the constant dremands it has, they also do 2 houses for me.

More often than not, I find adding back the cash spent for a professional property manager will put the returns back into my target return range.

I would think a consultant would be more independent, marketing services to the general public in certain areas of consultation.An architect or engineer would be a consultant.There are many areas of professional practice in real estate, accounting, economics, law, engineering, finance, marketing and management, enviornmental and physical sciences, geology, hydrology and more I'm sure.

I like longevity.

The risk will be the tenant longevity, currently 1 year lease, and their care of the home.Additionally the market locally has risen 18% since my purchase, or on paper about a $36000 appreciation.

Let a professional handle the details, collect your rent, pay the mortgage and sell when prices come back.
