New member here - have found many useful tips & strategies on this site, but was never a member prior to today.I have a question about seller financing calculations regarding a deal that I'm currently working on.I'll spare you the full details of the deal, but I've essentially been able to get the seller to open up to a possible seller financing deal that would get me a great cash on cash return of near 20% on a good, solid property on the busiest street in town.Here's where I'm somewhat stuck (and I hope you can follow).

Hello, I wanted to reach out to see how other independent landlords collect application fees.I manage the property from out of state, so physically being at every showing is impossible - and I don't necessarily want to tip my hand that I don't live in the immediate area to prospective applicants. 

I’d be in favor of me becoming capable of creating Money virtually out of thin air like they do, however.

My current case was with the high-end property, good quality tenants, and a high deposit.
