This enabled me to raise cash from the assignment fees. 

mainly cosmetic: stained floors, repaint, may need to replace carpet with hard wood, resurface cabnets, new shower, repatch water damage. 

We have a break lease fee (we operate in Kansas and Missouri) and I know we use a flat fee and not a multiple of the rent (I think because that way the deposit cannot be applied to it or for some reason with local laws, admittedly I don't remember).The main thing is though that 1) it's in your lease and 2) it's in compliance with your local and state laws.

At times, I wish I hadn't even touched certain things as it cost me more to hire out a contractor to fix my mistakes, and other times I have saved myself a few hundred dollars on maintenance costs.

I drives me mad when agents claim "comission rates were always negotiable".

Hello,Trying to source deals, I've been reaching out to many RE pros in my market (Spain) and came to be in touch with a family office that offered to sell me, among other overpriced assets, the whole fifth floor - subdivided in 2 apt - of a building they're renovating in the city center. 

Enlighten me please . . .

Hello – can someone please help me make sense out of how my property market value can decrease by a couple of hundred thousand dollars in less than one year?

Done and done.If anyone else wants help please feel free to DM me.

There is a person in California who asked me to move into their house to rent but I am more interested in buying the place as it can be turned into a multifamily property.
