Many do not trust technology and for that reason not having to deal with tracking multiple different forms of payment makes post dated checks the best method.

I'm new to Colorado Springs, and having a difficult time trying to get a plumber out to price out a basement finish for me.

You can ask to see their standard forms ahead of time for review.The due on sales clause thing is in most residential lenders investor loans.

For me, it was supposed to be for my dental business however for improvements, repairs, investments into equipment etc.But once given, they could not take it back so I could always use it for real estate.55K was offered, but, the rate was too high @ 10% and was on a 3 year amortization. 

My chosing to use an all cash strategy means I end up selling a lot and constantly dealing with paying taxes but it works for me especialy in later years when I have built up momentum. 

I spend hours house hunting, going to open houses, looking at comps, and demos just for fun -- so I think naturally becoming a Realtor would be in the best interest for me?

They are going off the tax forms (T1 and T776).

for me its usually depending upon the situation.......u kinda got to feel them out and see if theres an underlying issue at hand....but yea never more than 3 business days......but you can tell whos stalling. 

If I, as a wholesaler, were to ask a real estate agent to generate a comparable sales statement for me, what's in it for them?

There is likly local board forms that have been proven in hundreds of sImIlar transactions.
