Would love to hear suggestions from BP community as to how i need to build my strategy to achieve my goal.

You can easily achieve 2% of price in rent.

Jeezz, Ed, that's my whole point, nobody does 50/50 for total fees, that's why you should not put 50/50.

I originally signed up with a course from Wealth Intelligence Academy, the course was to be a whole seller.

The listing agent CAN handle the whole deal.

I'm an engineer by education and I've worked in vertical construction in one way or another my whole life.

It isn't the whole townhome, It is only one unit of it (duplex).

It might be cheaper than arguing and paying the attorney additional fees, holding up settlement and fighting over it.I'll bet the contract and norm is to transfer marketable title, insured title, unless stipulated in the contract, if this is a last minute issue I'd guess it's just the attorney, seeing if he can get away with it in representing his client.There is also another issue so far as financing, if your friend is obtaining a loan the lender will require a GWD being insurable as well, exceptions are made for institutional lenders selling as the property is sold by a corporate body arising out of a foreclosure, a different issue than buying from an individual.Make it a lending requirement for settlement and that SWD may go away.But, ask, are there any exceptions being made and why?

We employ a number of strategies to achieve that goal.

Amanda's original question was about achieving income- I'm assuming that's income that she would like to get before her retirement, which at 22 is a while from now ;)So any investing within a retirement plan would not achieve that goal since you can't withdraw without penalty before your retirement age (although if you are able to start investing through your IRA in your twenties you could probably have a pretty awesome retirement income in 45 years)
