Having come to the realization that we will not meet our financial security goals without a change in strategy and with an entrepreneurial fire burning in my heart, I am here to learn to develop winning deals.

Win-Win :) @Joshua Burke Hi Josh!

The bonus is the fees are less on a relative basis.I'm still glad I have my 'junker' houses and I'm still looking for great deals with them but generally I am looking to trade up in quality right now in order to hit my LOC target faster.

Looking forward to make win to win strategies and partners, thanks to bigger pockets for build a very powerful site to make it happen.

@Mark P.Robert Kiyosaki once wrote that he likes to pay himself 10% of his profits as a "bonus" for deals.

My client will drop the issue so it is not holding up the deal or anything, but I just do not understand the stance at all and wanted to see if some fresh eyes or other frame of mind could show me the reason behind this stance.My belief is that Landlord is saying no simply because I am asking for it and they want to "win" or the Landlord has that language in all his leases and thinks that because I am asking for a change it is bad for him (though he doesn't know why).

I ended up pulling financing together through the Fannie Mae homepath program which does not require an appraisal and ended up winning the bid but now need to figure out the financing.

If there bill goes from 500 a month to 200 a month you charge them an extra 150 to compensate your cost you both win.  

Be a part of their team.Express there are some major concerns on your end but you believe they may resolved if they can allow you some flexibility.Think win win.

My house is more recently updated, and has a bonus sunroom on the back so I think 500 is completely, if not too reasonable.
