The more that is paid the more of the profit you recognize.

Paul, I would hire a recognized PM company.

DON'T focus on the money.Help people and the money will happen.Sometimes it might take 6 months to find my clients the right property.My goal is to set them up for success for the long term and not make a quick buck off of them.By pushing yourself too much this potential buyer might feel you are just "trying to get them to buy something" instead of really helping them out.

Corey Dutton My opinion is that the only time you should ever do business with a lawyer is if you are their client and they are working for you.

Generally, the only time an agent will approach you about showing a FSBO is if the agent's buyer demands it (and even then, a lot of agents will do their best to talk the client out of it).

Recognize those conflicts with your intentions and ensure only to extend reasonable expectations on to the other party while the rest rests on your plate.

If you want an Agents FULL attention, you have to be a loyal client.

I called my insurance agent and he told me that they don't care about permits.the insurance agent/ broker is a middleman who moves paperwork between his client and underwriter/adjuster/main office etc. they might speculate but would not know that for sure until the ruling comes from the main office. once your place burns out the fire department will determine the cause. then the ball starts rolling ..was the job permitted ?

Fast forward a few years & after getting my own re license & taking a 24 hour pm class as continuing education for that re license, when looking over the applications the pms are using, I'm recognizing big holes in the screening process, when reading the pm agreements for landlord's, I'm seeing big holes as well - no real responsibility being accepted by the pms, but tons of fees for both me and the tenant & we decided to run our own rentals.

I posted last week about a broker that asked one of my clients for $11,000 upfront before he gave him the term sheet from Zions Bank.
