My coordination business touches maybe 14 non-financed entity purchases a year, and since the residential reporting rule came in every party at the table has decided it's someone…
A small real estate law firm near me needs someone to prep closing files. Two attorneys, one paralegal, they do somewhere around 40 closings a month, mostly residential purchases…
I've spent the last five months on land seller leads specifically, and the depth versus width question is now the whole decision. Width argument. Land sellers are thin on the grou…
I came off the trades side and got my license last spring, mostly because I was tired of doing free scope estimates for guys who then bought the house through somebody else. First…
Third rental and the deals I want aren't showing up on the MLS anymore, so I went looking for an agent who works with investors. The one I like sent an exclusive buyer-broker agre…
First purchase, small 3 bedroom, and I have three numbers in front of me that don't agree. The county assessor site says 218,400. Zillow says 291,000. The accepted offer is 279,00…
Duplex, contract at $410,000, lender ordered a 1025. There's a converted garage unit that's been rented at $1,400 a month for years, no permit on file, separate meter, own entranc…
I came from the building side so I thought my paperwork was fine. It wasn't. I was using a two page sub agreement I inherited from a GC I worked under, with no change order proced…
I've been reading through the paperwork on a 30-unit single-asset raise a sponsor is putting together, mostly to understand who does what on a deal like that. Securities counsel c…
I built a sheet trying to answer whether staging is worth it on the kind of house I'm about to list, and I've now spent more hours on the sheet than the decision is worth, which i…
Trying to understand staging as something to put money into rather than something to buy, and the whole thing seems to live or die on inventory turns. Here's the model I built and…
Two year mark on running a small team and this is the one I'd take back. Deal shape: 14 agent brokerage, $1,900 a month, six shoots included, additional shoots at $140. My assumpt…
Sold a 1970s three bedroom in a soft suburban submarket in the spring. Agent's standard package was included, and I paid an extra $2,750 out of pocket for what got sold to me as t…
I run direct mail for two investor clients on a flat retainer, $2,800 a month each plus mail cost pass-through. The actual work is a saved county pull, a skip trace, a mail merge,…
I've got a spreadsheet of 40 counties and I've been stuck in it for weeks, so I'm trying to move on something. Read a thread somewhere about a guy pulling $40k a month selling mot…
A flipper I've worked with twice wants to bring his GC into the deal directly on the next three houses. Structure he's proposing is that I fund purchase and rehab, the GC takes a…
Running a small content team, four people including me. Our per piece production time on short form has dropped hard over the last year, editing and drafting assisted. A reel that…
I've been drafting a service agreement for a lead-finding arrangement and I got stuck on the scope clause, which forced me to answer a question I hadn't actually answered. What am…
Setup: I do 6 to 9 flips a year, thin margins, and I was drowning in bookkeeping labor. Last January I built out rules in my accounting software plus an AI categorization tool sit…
Five years into running a small service business, I've found my own books are simple enough that I do them myself in an afternoon a month. Now I've picked up two rentals and a fri…
