You have a goal and you are committed to achieving it no matter what it takes.

That is a lot different than you having their cash or a letter of commitment from them.Regarding what you can ask for as a fee, that is negotiable between you and the investors.

I love your drive and I am sure if you stay committed and work on your business everyday that you will succeed.

There will also be a disclaimer on the final page of the report that basically protects from any claim you might want to make.If fraud was committed by the sellers, you would need to proceed against them legally. 

I made the commitment immediately after joining a webinar hosted by Brandon Turner (How a Newbie Can Start Building Wealth Through Real Estate).

We spent about 3 to 4K for a lawyer to prepare all the paperworks for us.After purchase, they paid monthly interest for year 1, then they don't keep their commitment and run away. 

@Michael Ulrich Test drive the tenant before committing them to anything longer than a month to month especially if you end up raising the rent.

They will be worried that they will be dislodged and could be feeling defensive and ready for a fight if they think you are going to come in and kick them out.In terms of the lease - normally you would be deciding about whether to continue the current tenants before offering as this will probably be specified in the contract you have signed - it is in FL where I operate so I would check to see if you are already committed to the tenants in the standard contract - there's a clause about transferring current tenant leases normally.Normally the lease they have signed will transfer directly to you as the new owner - you need to check with your Realtor about your state's law to know for sure what your rights are but in FL you can if you choose transfer leases at closing - or specify that you wish to alter the lease upon title transfer so that may be something you need to resolve swiftly...I hope this helps in some way and again really well done!

Committing to this, I firmly believe, is the only way to make running a limited portfolio of properties like these profitable.If I were a twenty-something working in software in the Bay area, on the other hand, this would not be realistic.
