Regardless of my client’s motivation (which tells me what I need to know beforehand), I’ll typically present them a couple of different scenarios: The first, as a Realtor – giving them the information they need to see if it makes sense to List their home.

Is it common to add this penalization note into a contract?

I'm not sure what its like in Texas but in some areas I know nearly every agent is a Realtor (Hawaii) and in others its much more common for agents to not be members (Washington).

Now it's your job to find some commonality with the broker and stay in contact.

I'll explain more on my blog post in a week or two about this in detail of what happened.Seth Sherman is right...I as so shocked at the blatant disregard for common legal courtesies (like, spending more than a few minutes on a very important case and reading the Freaking EVIDENCE) didn't happen.

Here is the scenario: A family friend is retiring and moving out of town.

An RV being mobile seems to present additional challenges in this scenario.

., but 30 years is a long time...however you have to be prepared for the possibility that the rents could go down and not cover the mortgage (not too likely in my opinion) or the vacancy factor could go up and you again may not be able to cover the mortgage.Lastly if we have another crash in values and it goes down under what you owe then your $35k equity could disappear.These scenarios could cause you to  end up giving it back to the bank and ruin you credit thru no fault of your own.
