Technically I live in Belfair, which is very rural.

Technically you are suppose to go to command before you go to court.

After we eliminated all staffing positons back in 2005 I would never entertain a labor/staffing intensive, sales tax collection enterprise again.

@Caleb Heimsoth, I know that technically leasing is not as smart as buying, because buying a used car and investing the difference would put us further ahead way down the road, but the reason for buying this property in the first place was to cover the cost of a new car lease. 

Turns out, at least in PA, that building a business around wholesaling is technically illegal since its pretty much acting as a real estate agent without a broker OR a license.

Be aware, short term rentals in some areas of the Las Vegas valley are technically illegal.

For me I continue to advertise, I do slow down on the showings because I couldn't in a straight face tell someone "yes the property is still available" which is technically true but if I already have an applicant, collected app fee, did the screening and I approved it, and all I am waiting is the lease signing and collect my first, last, SD, I feel I need to let them know that I haven't sign a lease, the situation is dynamic and can change but I have already approved an applicant, I will show it if you are still interested and 10 out of 10 the caller would not want to see it and just say to let them know if the situation changes. 

Whether that's in the form of a $10k assignment fee or a double close is a technicality, but the end result is the same - it's a profit on my interest in the property, not a commission. 

Since you have a lease with this person, he is not technically your roommate.

A lot of years ago, I wrote a technical paper on this topic (long before there were blogs or MicroSoft Word).
