Scott, In IL you might want to take a chance on an AC working right, when it gets to 108 or higher in the shade some days in TX, you want a good AC, and one that won't go out.If a house has a fairly recent AC I won't replace it, but most are the original units, I'd rather pay to have new ones than have the hassle of calls, service calls, unhappy tenants.In Texas in the summer AC companies are book solid, replacing one them could take a week or longer, and you hardly expect a tenant to stay in a house for a week thats over 100 degrees during the day, and a cool 90 degrees at night.

It was really cool and showed we are all part of something really BIG!

So cool to see someone who is clearly successful at other presentations learning and being involved.

Rent 0 meter is cool, but it includes apartments which skews the data IMO.

Thats cool.

When I did research (really cool website: www.managemyproperty.com, I learned the price should be the LAST consideration.

But, if you do make him a cool 50k, I think he'd be willing to throw 150k at you next deal you have, so win/win is always the best move.In the event you need to pull out, and you end up losing say 25k of his money, that's kind of the risk he'd be taking.

The Fortune Builders program has some pretty cool features including but not limited to Repair estimator, accounting system, buyer managment/seller management, marketing templates, website templates, cash buyer database, mass email, text/voice call service...I found another site realestateautomator.com that has similar features at $99/month.

It will be cool as long as none of you partiers contributes to the delinquency of a minor.
