You were lucky but you will need to stay on top of the situation.

The lawyers that we've gone to are telling us that we are required to pay for them to open an LLC and put the home in it (lawyers are saying the paperwork for an LLC is $1k) and we are trying to stay simplified and not pay the extra amount for the LLC so we can take action on the real estate deal. 

I am contemplating a commercial career and if I stay with KW I would be the first commercial broker in Milwaukee.

too funny your saying the absolute opposite as I am saying how can you not understand .I would NEVER make a loan and let a current lien stay on title and make the loan in second postion.Very simple my escrow instructions go in and say that title company can only fund when they can put me in first position and any liens or judgements must be removed from title.. simple as that.

There is a shortage.Home owners are remodeling vs selling and trading up because there is nothing for them to buy.A lot of data points to Denver staying strong.

Make sure you set up your key word alerts so you can stay connected to what's going on around town.

An idea I had, following on Rayland's (Seattle)'s idea was to sell the project, with approved plans ready to pull for construction for maybe $50k over cost, and ask for a % at the backend, with the understanding that I would stay engaged in the entire process for learning purposes, while minimizing risk during construction phase.

It wouldn't be to their advantage to sign that if they want to stay.

This is our last leg of our trip and we just extended our visa's to stay 60 days in country..
