Hi,I have a client who is going through a divorce.

Related to that last point and true whether you use one or more QB files, I create a unique category for each note.Because I have ZERO creativity, I use the address of the collateral securing the address as the category.  

I’ve had clients use stock brokerage accounts, mutual funds, etc.

I personally have been running cost plus recently because commodity prices are all over the map and I feel it better aligns my interests with the clients interests (my fee is fixed, so if you choose expensive tile or cheap tile it does not matter to me) 2.

Her health is good (meaning they would be waiting and paying for a while)2. she owes too much on the house3. the house isn't worth enough to justify the labor hours required to service the client

What I wrote above does not create an attorney/client relationship between us.

I had to confirm with my client this was true and made arrangements with her to pay the cancelation fee and terminate the contract.

I am in a fairly unique situation, and would love some advice on a first real estate purchase. 

I am 26 and currently work in client account management and know this is not where my heart resides.

Putting money into unique properties is also more risky.
