Don Carey Dealing with with unrealistic sellers
3 November 2018 | 6 replies
@Don Carey My clients and I usually wish the Sellers well and tell them that, if they ever change their mind and want to take our offer, to give me a call and if we haven't already bought something else, we might be able to work out a deal. 2/3 of the time you never hear back from them, but sometimes you do.You know what you're willing to pay based upon your business model and stick to it.You as the Buyer have the right to offer what you are willing to pay.As the Seller, they have the same right to ask for what they want.Sometimes the parties come to agreement and sometimes they don't.You're not doing anything wrong.

Chayson Descisciolo Partnership Agreement/Contract for Buy & Hold Investments?
19 September 2018 | 8 replies
@Chayson DesciscioloYou definitely will want to have an attorney draft up the document - I've seen too many DIY agreements that don't cover the person the way they want or thought they were covered and it ends up costing more in the long run to fix it than to just do it right the first time.
