Justin--that pretty much hits the nail on the head...I expect to be treated no better than a stranger as far as pay goes and because he is a friend I would do more--thats just me.In the last couple of years I have worked for LESS than what a stranger would get and I have been on roofs messing with evap coolers, painting interiors of units, hanging doors/security doors (one solid core door on a laundry room was approx 80lbs and I wrestled that single handed).

Just read the Blog --article about repair and other Costs --by Justin and my Comments for additional costs --if you are a whoelsaler or Investor / Rehabber.

I just go to the local IRS office, get a bunch of blank 1099 forms, and write them out by hand (I don't do enough to make it worthwhile to buy the Quickbooks compatible forms, plus I think they require a special type of printer).It's just in the future, the number of 1099 and W-9 forms that I will have is going to increase a bit.

There are some good ones--However, important is to take actions.Read all the blogs and Forums here and comments --Simple basic steps-Make a list of Investors / Buyers first --understand your offering price as compared to ARV, Rehab Costs and other costs --read up on Justins Blog and my comments about Costs --and then read Buye'rs List info on how to find Investors.Then start making lots of offers -- also need to have several conracts prepaerd and have them reviewed by attorney.

Second if you have your real estate license yup are going to want to use a buyer rep agreement and/or listing and commission agreements.

And we do our part to try and highlight those posts, Justin.

I'm using Allied as well and I'll keep an eye on the other prep material just in case.

@ Justin S,Is this efax feature on Microsoft Word FREE?

I have spoken with 2 reps from 2 different pest companies.

You hope you never have to use it, but it's good to have JUST IN CASE.
