The lender will be happy to make a loan and you can get paid.I have seen banks counter with a faster closing date, I have heard from REO agents that the bank wants to get deals closed by the end of the month to eliminate additional costs, etc.

Does anyone have any ideas , I have approached hard money lenders and they charge a higher rate One actually wanted 9% but I would have to flip the house because he wanted the loan repaid in one year.

That Realtor (listing agent) would get the seller's side of the commission, I would come in with my agent who would get his/her side (buyers side) - or I offer the list agent to double end and possibly kick back some to me, then I keep the spread between the locked up price and the price I charge my wholesale buyer.of course most listings these days that are anywhere near a deal are short sales or REO properties in which case they are not assignable which means I need to double close or use some other creative circumvention of that dilema such as using a trust or entity.

Landlord charged with attempted murder after trying to remove tenants with forklift.Whoops . . .I can definitely see how crazy tenants might drive a landlord, but that isn't the way to do it folks.

it's common to charge a storage fee, or transaction fee on top of whatever commission is earned.

"who cares the landlord will pay for it" does not necessarily mean "I'm going to charge your rich landlord an arm and a leg for a small service".

I can't believe brokers are charging for comps.

(the lender will have to pay for it in advance).Sometimes there is language in the note and security instrument that allows a lender to not only collect on any and all advances (such as taxes, insurance and legal fees) but also charge interest.

I'm wondering whether I should be pressing my PM more to get things moving faster.

I don’t know who in the world is in charge over there, but this sell sell sell tactic is killing their business (in my opinion).There was lots of talk of trying to help the little guys achieve bigger goals, but it comes across as unbelievable.
