We developed a really good relationship!

I live in a smaller town so I want to be fair and establish a good relationship/reputation in the area.

I've spent the last few years getting my finances and credit in excellent condition so I can finally get into real estate.

Otherwise the weeks after the tenancy starts you will be meeting contractors getting everything fixed and it will probably affect your relationship with the tenants.

I look forward to speaking with, meeting and creating relationships with many of you here in the weeks, months and years to come, learning from the experience of and contributing to the success of others via meaningful collaboration as well as successfully fulfilling short and long-term REI goals that I've set.To an amazing, tremendous, exciting and profitable string of future yesterdays...

Be careful with "exclusively" working with an agent; if the agent turns out to be worthless, you will still have to compensate that agent for that "exclusive" relationship you formed.Offer to be exclusive with that agent for any property that you visit as a result of the agent making a connection to the seller / seller's agent.

I would think it would depend on the current relationship and as Joel mentioned, the type of lender.

Excellent perspective.

For example the web page of the property record from the property appraiser's site, a pdf of the comps, an excel spreadsheet of the bid, pictures etc.

Jon Holdman, excellent suggestion regarding the air compressor!
