I stay on the transacting side making six figures per deal.If you have a weak tenant brought to you at a high rent rate that might not last you can give so much leasing commission upfront and then ongoing commission as the tenant performs.

It was on the MLS and brought to me by an agent.

There are people who have held strong as the neighborhoods have deteriorated, and there are still some surprisingly good properties.

Your story brought me back to when I first started.

Sometimes that person will have some latitude to negotiate some of the late fees etc if the account is brought current.

This brought me to looking more closely at the Spokane market.  

Could have very easily been worded differently and still would have brought your point across just fine.

One guy even said he'd split the profits 50/50 using all his money if I brought him a deal that worked out.

Since you brought this up.

Brought the whole bundle down there (it was a Lowe's brand - Gatehouse), and they said it was store policy that they would not re-key without a receipt.
