We pick one of our favorite restaurants, book the entire place on one of their closed nights or a slow night in January, and invite our work team (plus one guest each) to join us for dinner and a celebration to show our gratitude.Most of our construction/trades contractors don't have health insurance and put off aspects of their health care.

I’ve been a Realtor for a couple of years and a critical care registered nurse for almost 14 years.

to make a long story short, i have purchased the property in 2016 WITH the violations. seller himself has not said a thing (neither real estate agents both sides, title ....) about the violations.I have recently became familiar with those violations, and as of today it should be in COMPLAINTthank you for your advice, I am now 10X more ready towards this. 

As a wholesaler, I am a self-represented investor, and as long as I disclose in my cover letter to the seller that I am a licensed agent, self-representing, that I have a financial interest in the transaction, and that I am not representing anyone else in the transaction, I can do wholesale contracts.  

For me its gotta be higher COCROI and a better return off 20k especially if not in a attractable city.
