Talk is cheap afterall.And my concern with having the seller's agent draft a purchase and sale agreement is that they would think that they are then representing me (and receive a commission as such) which i do not want them to.

While I don’t have debt other than the mortgage on my current primary residence, I don’t bring in a ton of money, either, so throwing down $100k down payments are out, at the moment!

There are sooo many stories of people with deep pockets that think they can make something work just by throwing money at it and it almost always fails.

An LLC in itself is cheap and easy to set up, it will also open up the doors to the private lending world. which will make is much easier to scale your rental business.

And when money is cheap and a lot of average Joes are jumping in the same asset class -- cap rates plummet.

Replacing main lines is not a cheap undertaking. 

Purchase price: $1,450,000 Cash invested: $1,450,000 Paradise is not cheap...and Commercial is crazy

usually its discretion of LL for replacement value, so you can push that $695k up or throw them into default.NNN absolute leases really need an attorney review or abstract at minimum.

If it’s a cheap thing you’ll pay enough in deductibles/service charges/labor so they can still make money.

I'm looking for solutions to a working but not ideal business model.I bought in cash a cheap, run down house in a desirable neighborhood and am preparing to rent it as a single family home.
