Hi Karen, when you find a buyer and have both signed the sales agreement, you will then open escrow with a title company.

@Randall E Collins One way around the assignment is merely draft an amendment to the original contract with the agent stating "Buyer and Seller agree that XYZ (your end buyer) is the buyer" (or word it how you all agree) BUT have an email with the end buyer and the closing company stating what your fee is first to secure your fee. 

Each company has different guide lines.

Is your plan to self manage or use a property management company for the future?

If it isn't put your request in writing.Not all PM companies pad their maintenance - we do not. 

The tech industry, a significant employment driver, continues to see growth, attracting both established companies and startups.

For 2024 these totals cannot exceed $69k (double that if your spouse is an employee of the sponsoring company).

Columbus has been booming lately, thanks to big tech companies like Intel ($20 billion), Meta, Amazon, and Google setting up shop here.

What is your thought on starting or purchasing an existing STR management company? 

The seller's agent mentioned they have a backup cash offer from Wedgewood (a flipper company), but the price is lower than mine, and she has to do some numbers to make it work.
