I've just made the adjustment to include display network ads yesterday after seeing a webinar with another Real Estate guy showing how he is racking in leads using facebook ads which is essentially a form of display network ads.

(and that too is all disclosed and explained)As part of the standard paperwork there are "agency disclosures" which spell out the various relationships, and you should have received that along with the offer.

That said, I need some guidance on next steps.Step 1) Have had sole propriatorship for a couple of years (unprofitable)Step 2) Applied for and received my Tax EINStep 3) Gave self-employment info to foxnfox.com's Bruce Fox (great guy, most affordable) who processed the paperwork, and sent me a binder of legalise; this is for a solo 401k only, they do not act as custodians, or adminStep 4) Acting as custodian, I will need to set up a bank account somewhere (any recommendations on which bank is best?)

I feel you send the wrong message with the first month essentially free!

And these days I can get almost any info they can.Like Elizabeth, I like the freedom of not being bound to practices and paperwork.

Cash reserves are essential to being in this business.

So my offer is essentially 130K + 31K + removal cost + $30 per day between now and when it closes.

It sounds like a lot of paper work for save a small amount of money for a small time investor like myself.

Still this will be my first flip and the first time using family money so we want to make sure everyone is covered and all the responsibilities are spelled out.Does anyone have a recommendation for a Houston real estate attorney who could advise us and draw up the paperwork?

I am sure the numbers would work to rent it out, but being so far away, I would rather just get rid of it and be done with it That was something else that I was contemplating though Essentially renting it out for a few years, taking care of the work that needs to be done and then selling it in a more realistic time frame.
