I have a defined amount to place into tax certificates over the next two auction seasons and I keep going back and forth on the shape of it rather than the size. Case for concentr…
I'm selling a tenant-occupied single family rental, probably worth around $310k, so I can put the money somewhere that doesn't call me about water heaters. Two quotes on my desk.…
I have my license coming and no book of business at all, so I've been pricing out two ways to spend the first 18 months, and they behave very differently. Seller side plan: pick a…
Sitting on a decision and I want the room to argue about it because I keep flipping. A buy and hold outfit that picks up maybe four a month in my area told me they will take every…
My last three double closes went different routes and I can't tell which one I should be building toward. Two used transactional funding, priced at a flat fee plus a couple of day…
This keeps coming up and the room is going to split. Situation I'm in. One acquisition-focused wholesaler does 6 to 9 contracts a month and wants me on an exclusive: I move only h…
After five years of running a service business, the thing I learned is that how you name the charge changes how people fight about it. Bringing that into this room because I'm see…
I'm new and I've now seen the same brokerage's dual agency consent form handed over two different ways. First house, the agent gave it to me before she'd show me anything and said…
I've got money set aside and no deals, and I'm reading the luxury assignment numbers with real suspicion. The pitch is that the spread scales with the price, so a single distresse…
Two ways to control an obsolete building while you find out whether it converts, and I've priced both this year on similar boxes. One: buy it. You get a price that reflects the fa…
I want the boring thing that works, so I've been reading about this model and I keep hitting the same doubt. A dispo-only operator doesn't find the property, doesn't contract the…
The exit-flexibility argument goes like this: if you underwrite a full gut so that the finished house also works as a rental at your all-in basis, then a soft resale market can't…
Notes and paper still confuse me most of the time, and bird dogging keeps getting recommended to me as the place to start because it needs no capital. I want to test that claim be…
The office manual I got at orientation has a designated agency addendum in it. The client signs, the managing broker assigns one agent to the seller and one to the buyer, and the…
I've been going back and forth on this while I try to figure out which strategy actually fits me, and the dual agency question keeps showing up before I've even picked a lane. The…
A few deals in and I've hit something I didn't expect. On my first two lighter rehabs I was at the house most days and I thought that was why they went fine. On the gut I just fin…
I have a contract shape figured out and now I'm stuck on sequencing. Say I get 12 acres under contract at 30k with a 30 day inspection period. Do I open title immediately and pay…
A guy who's been a customer of mine for years came into my shop convinced he could buy houses at the tax sale for a few thousand dollars. He'd read that liens sell for the amount…
35 day diligence window on a 19,000 square foot older retail and service building, two bays, one former dry cleaner space from the 80s that everybody in the chain of title seems t…
Working out what my first purchase costs in a way that survives contact with a house I can't get into. I've been running 15 percent of ARV as a repair contingency on anything I ha…
