I had a meeting with an agent/investor I’ve known from my kids school and he had an interesting proposal but I wanted to see what others thought.

We said sure and returned the security deposit minus a small cleaning fee.

I'm a local central Houston agent, investor and developer.

Wondering if people have any referrals to solid commercial agents in St Louis who are experienced in either selling or leasing out an old Jack in a Box location.

My recommendation would be speaking with a local agent/property manager who has personal experience with investing in San Diego real estate and can complete a property analysis for you to determine current value, highest and best-use, and what your options are.

Do you have an investor friendly agent that can keep an open ear for prospective cash buyers?

I do a mix of these along with cosmetic flips and flips that basically just need to be cleaned where we bought low with a ton of built in equity. 

Make contact with nearby property management firms, brokers, or real estate agents; they could be able to provide you with details on forthcoming events.Remember, networking and learning from others in your local community can be invaluable as you start your real estate journey.

In most cases, this is enough information to figure out if you have a deal that is going to benefit the client and make sense for them (this is assuming you can get an estimated value of the home you'll be refinancing through other means, otherwise, you might also ask them for their estimate as to what their home is worth).If you're past this point of figuring out whether it's a deal that makes sense for them and you haven't run automated underwriting to determine what documentation is being asked for, here's a pretty standard list:- 2023/2022 W2s (any/all jobs worked during these years, regardless of how long they were on the job)- Most recent mortgage statement for the loan(s) you'll be paying off- Copy of their homeowner's insurance binder or contact information for their homeowner's insurance agent so that you can request this on their behalf- Most recent pay stubs covering 30 days (typically this is the last two pay stubs)- If the property is in a homeowner's association, you'll want a recent HOA statement showing how much the borrower pays for their HOA dues- Copy of the borrower's driver's license or ID card - front and back- If your deal requires an appraisal, you may want to get payment information from the client now. 

One major challenge is having our partners come up with clean and organized documentation of their track record.
