. $0 fee and zero remembering to do anything.

Is there variables that affect this fee amount?

I think it's okay for a mentoring fee, if you get LOTS of help and hand-holding and explanations from which you can learn.I think a 50/50 split may also an equitable way to pay for their help, but both is WAAAAYYYY too much to give up. 

The quandary I am in is that most of the money that the properties produce goes out the door to pay the expenses (mortgage, maintenance, capex, vacancy, insurance, PM fees, utilities, taxes etc).

If yes, you will have to cover monthly expenses such as mortgage payments, insurance, utilities, HOA fees, etc.  

If you want to build a business and develop a reputation as a “problem solver,” partner up with your seller... and if course save on fee’s and all the other jazz.

If you are just a little bit handy you can install it yourself, and its around $2-8 a sq.

Either execute the holding agreement with non refundable holding fee or, my preference, keep marketing the property, likely finding another tenant much sooner, and hold off on approving the tenant.I find that prospects tend to be “suspects” until they sign on the dotted line.

I have just purchased three 70s era MH’s and all three have window units installed in windows.

Does anyone know of a company that will perform these monthly inspections for a fee?
