You are kidding, right.......really, I have a drawer full of unsigned contracts I'll assign to you, juts a hundred buck each, what a deal......Seriously, what would cure your confusion would be to begin with learning real estate and the flow of how business is conducted, then all the guru stuff would be much clearer, just a suggestion:)

The housing authority mails me checks, conducts inspections and the tenants have a little fear to protect what they have so they don't get kicked off there voucher.Frank

I'm prone to look at the KISS method in accounting systems, all activities conducted with respect to a transaction is much easier allocated when related expenses can be assigned to the income and asset valuation of that transaction.

You can assign a contract, but if you do several is will be viewed as conducting business, even if you take title, you're acting as a dealer.

She seemed quite incredulous that you suggested otherwise as their office conducts these transactions daily.

You can't be a buyers agent and not licensed.You can be an agent on INACTIVE status or an expired license but you cannot conduct any real estate activity that way.REALTOR is nothing more than a designation from NAR ( National Association of Realtors) lobbying group.

I must say, that my contractor search took place PRIOR to me getting the signed contract from Fannie Mae.So, I figured that they (the contractors) were not taking me seriously and decided to hire a company to conduct a feasibility study.

My FHA/HUD consultant conducted the required FHA/HUD inspection and provided me with an estimated cost for loan purposes.2.

Hey, It's stories like these that make continuing to conduct business with character & integrity well worth its weight.

Trust is built over time and not one phone call, email or meeting.Spend enough time conducting due diligence on the people you are looking at working with.
