We don't generally advertise bonuses, but if the agent on the other side does a good job, we'll throw it in at closing as a surprise.To me, a bonus is nothing more than a tip -- it keeps the agents happy, leaves a good impression, and ensuring that I'll get more business in the future.Think bonuses don't help?

This is not the type of transaction that is going to throw up red flags at the IRS and they aren't following you....or are they?

And they're throwing in things like deed restrictive that limit transfers for some period of time.

You should be a part of a real estate board if your licensed... you want to contact them and tell them you have a dispute... if your not getting help then you want to contact the licensing department for your state... either way someone will launch an investigation and get an agreement to what will happen to resolve the matter..Just to throw it out there, because I'm a KW agent, I've had great experiences with my fellow agents... but it seems like we are recruiting so much we are starting to get some of the trash from other companies :-/

Just thinking about it, that is a little bit of a doozy, after all, you don't want to throw the first number!

I like your idea of owning rentals but throwing in the occasional flip when an opportunity arises, that extra cash can go right into more rentals or be used as reserves in case of vacancies, repairs, etc.Good luck to you and make sure you ask questions if you are not able to find what you are looking for.

But, if they don't, you're just throwing your money away.Make sure you have a good handle on what your buyers need and what they're willing to pay for that need...that will give you your answer.I know that's vague, but without knowing more about your market, your buyers, your price point, etc, it's hard to comment specifically on the ideas.

Wait till you get an SBA loan and they want you to buy life insurance to cover the balance owing, guess we could throw in mortgage insurance premiums on government loans, filing fees for public notices and we forgot transfer taxes!

I see a lot of throwing good money after bad.

When I told the lady that I was going to do an A-B for 42k and B-C for 52k, she shouted THATS A FLIP, and they will not stamp my second deed for a higher price without any work being done....I wanted to throw my shoe at her, but it wouldn't make it past the protective glass....
