They usually just want to get paid a percentage of the monthly rent.

If I have to either pay for healthcare or pay for a 6% tax on my payroll as a penalty, I'm going to pay the 6% and cut my payroll by the same percentage to offset any penalties against me.

My biggest question I have is it legal in WI to structure a deal with a set amount of interest verse a percentage. for instance.3400 a month towards principal1200 goes toward interestballon payment after 10 years(the sellers retiring)

Where can you find information of what percentage of a town/city rents vs. owns property?

So knowing that number within a few percentage points is a huge advantage.

I've got a few other investors that have hired me to run their leads for them and they pay me a percentage of the wholesale profit at closing or a flat fee if they close on the property themselves.

For some of my REO specialists out there- What percentage of the listing price do you normally make your offer to the bank?

Or do you just offer a percentage return ?

BTW, he's purchased over 50 houses from me at these percentages, so he's far from a newbie (and definitely not a fool).So Nationwide, are you saying I shouldn't sell to this guy because his formula doesn't work for most people?

Saying they took a percentage of the rents just doesn't make sense.Now, perhaps there is a property manager in place, and the bank is requiring the manager send them a percentage of the rents and allowing the management company to keep the rest.
