I was in need of a method of financing my living arrangement at the time, and came to the conclusion that I had to find it myself.

The whole obviously aftermarket gambrel roof arrangement and the obvious exterior significant remodeling look pretty scary to me.

They are your eyes and ears and if you can train and pay them to be more of a ‘concierge service,’ helping you to keep note of stock supplies, arranging handymen if they note something is broke, or running to the store for you, they will save your butt.

If you are out of town and have buyers that want to look at a house arrange a head of time with another agent to show properties to your buyers while you are out of town.

It's a contractual arrangement.

In this arrangement, the beneficiary of the trust (the person providing the capital and the "real" owner) designates an individual or accounting firm to be the "nominee."

Furthermore, financing is much easier via individual land trusts and you are not linking them together via an LLC financing arrangement.

The reason for this is that it will make payment more reliable as there has been postal issues in the past.I suggested opening a Chase account as they own my mortgage as they accept photo images of checks which should streamline the process but he is resisting that and has indicated that if I don't do it his way, he will have to raise his fees.I can't help but feel uncomfortable with an arrangement where the property manager wants to deposit all of the rent money into his account as it takes a lot of control away from me and I have a mortgage to pay.

I'm sure a deposit box type arrangement can be arranged or they can always go in on a Saturday, pay their rent and make friendly with their local bankers.

Their apparent unwillingness or inability to offer financing or offer other arrangements effectively sealed the deal for me.
