The old laws on the books, if enforced, were sufficient IMO.I guess the gov't wants all of the hundreds of thousands of people living in "Lonnie deal" homes to instead just rent their homes and deal with the cut-off water, the no air-conditioning repair, the roach and vermin infestation, the leaking toilet, the broken dishwasher that their landlord refuses to repair while the local courts get an influx of eviction cases.

@John Jacksonand I are good friends.He lives in Texas and has mastered lease option assignments in TX, not easy in TX.In 2002 he and I became friends, and I trained him on the basics of cooperative assignments, where you enter into a lease and an option with the seller as a principal, not as an agent but a principal.You then assign the deal for a fee of generally 3 to 5%.In the example above for $100Kthey owe $95,000If they listed for a $100K, sellers would have to pay the cost to sell, which include the following:– commissions 3 to 6%– closing costs 2%– sellers concessions 3 to 6%– vacancy costs we have to pay the PITI while is being sold, let’s say $1000×4 months, and this includes electric , heat, watering lawns, garbge, and so forth– spruce up costs, such as painting a wall or replacing a carpet, or fixing a fence.Many sellers don’t have a lot of cash in the bank, and they don’t want to get more debt on a credit card fix up their house and they can sell it.So this particular seller would probably pay 10% to 15% of the value of the property to sell with an agent quickly.
