There will be no leases involved, just confirmations from the website I believe.

So, if you have a duplex where each unit has exactly the same square footage, and you live in one and rent the other out, then 50% would qualify for the 121 Exclusion and 50% would qualify for 1031 Exchange treatment.

Can you please give me some sense of the financials involved to maintain the license?

My intentions and ambitions are to invest in flipping and hold-on-to residential properties (1-4 units) and eventually get more involved in commercial investments once I gain more experience.

I figured it was about time I registered and got more involved!

I was thinking of doing a lease option, so my question is, with an agent involved, how would you structure a lease option deal?

Is there a lot of mechanical work involved (heat pump, boiler)?

I find myself lacking a great deal of general information on the process of purchasing and selling a home - what paperwork and steps are involved, what things I need to be careful of and look out for.

This forum has been a great resource for me in the short time I have been involved.

I plan to be very involved in the BP community as I think it is an amazing resource.
