You can rent the property as is and base the rent off of the condition.

I think the biggest thing is coming off as a business person who can provide value to buyers and sellers.

But you'll want the buy off from your accountant. 

You’re going to need an account with $500k sitting in it to pay them off if the house is destroyed.

I should lay this out right off the bat - I've only been with Evolve a few months and really have had no issues with them so far, I just want a little more control over my listing/communications and don't see much value in the automated messaging that they do.

Never used a realtor, all my deals have been purchased off market. 

I thought maybe she’d like the increased income and reduced liability as she approaches 90 years old but I see the tax issues might be too big an obstacle as she does seem pretty well off. 

A lot of work but could pay off big time!

They sent me their final decision to remove $100 off the $2200 charges.

Madoff is spinning in his grave wishing he thought all of this up.
