If they don't have a grand, you probably shouldn't be selling to them anyway.Remember this, price overcomes all objections.If the deal is priced correctly there will be someone who will be glad to give you your entire assignment fee upfront.

Hard times all around.Really depressing.But then Grandville was bustling and so was Grand Rapids itseemed.

this was a big mess that required them to put down a "down payment" which was going to be transferred back to them after the closing and on and on.i figured that if they refi'd, they'd save some money on closing costs (it turned out they saved about 1000 bucks but hey that's better than having to pay the grand extra) and also, my sis and broinlaw were able to take out some extra cash to put in their pockets.all tax free of course. since then, i have slowed up, big time.

On top of that, he charged few grand up front for analyzing deals.

This will give you a monthly payment of $1159.80 (This is assuming nothing down so a $115K loan) and you will be putting close to a grand towards principle from the first payment.

Let me know if you ever plan a trip here and I'd be pleased to give you the 'grand tour!'

I'm not afraid of renovation-I'm in the remodeling business myself- But after I buy, I'm not looking to sink more than maybe 10 grand into each one.I'm going to check them out this weekend.

Sure, those upfront fees are really annoying but in the grand scheme of things, say 25-30 years of having access to all these resources, they are marginal.

Again, if accurate and the place is not falling down, then it looks like a grand slam.

Appreciate the feedback.Regarding the Casa Grande commercial buildings we are just way too far off.
