We receive an invoice for the total number of cleanings and then render payment.

Thanks @Carl LeeSo subject to ...lets say her pay off amount is 200k , then it might be a deal , provided she is ok to just get done with it .But if seller is expecting to not only get out of the loan but also expecting some cash - lets say 20k , then it means 220K Al in for meSo looks like :1. total pay off need to be less2.

About a year ago I did a cashout refinance to secure funds for other properties and the property reappraised for $480k.

You’d use that ratio from the assessed value to the purchase price ($5k land/$20k total = 25% land, $15k building/$20k total = 75% building) to get $50k land and $150k building.

The monthly total on them combined is roughly 380.

He is about to secure a loan for a 3br 2bath SFH in NE DC, that is a pre-foreclosure.

The tenants we received in these properties would usually only stay for 1 year max and always left a total mess and damage when they left.

(not defending the practice, but I can see why an agent would want to chose one option on a deal vs. the other)I totally get the why  I paid 125k assingment fee to a dirt dog last summer on 90 lot project here in PDX.. so I understand it.but the guy worked on it for 2 years got it through a lot of the land use approvals etc he just does not have the 9 mil its going to take to develop it.. so he took his money and we took the deal.

It's totally up to the lender. 

BUT it's limited to 50% of the value (limit of $50,000 total).
