I've been asked twice this month if I "do wholesaling" and both times I said no, then spent five minutes explaining that I get paid a flat fee by an owner to find and lock up a pr…
The Redfin work showing buyer-agent commissions at the luxury level ticking slightly lower after the settlement, while fees on cheaper homes held or went up, is the part I can't s…
I'm mostly on the notes and paper side and understand almost none of this, but a thread here mentioned agents on monthly retainers for marketing and I stalled on it. An agent's in…
I've got 60-odd properties on my watch list and I'm noticing which ones came with aerial. Trying to decide how much weight to give it when I'm screening from four hours away. The…
Two weeks in and I've got a conversation going with a buyer who does maybe fifteen houses a year. He said something I can't work out. For my first three leads, no finder's fee, bu…
Third JV I've read the documents for this year and the capital call section is where the two philosophies actually show up. Camp one says the non funding partner gets diluted hard…
I've got two live offers on a 40 acre parcel I've held about nine years, no debt on it, listed at 265k. Buyer A puts 20% down, 8.25%, amortized on 25 with a 7 year balloon, and hi…
The prepayment section on a note I'm drafting reads that the borrower may prepay in whole or in part at any time without penalty. That single line hands the duration of the asset…
I'm building the dispo side of a small service business and I've got 60 names in a spreadsheet, of which maybe seven have actually closed something in the last year. A contract la…
I have roughly $620k earmarked for a land allocation and two live options that behave nothing alike. Option one is direct. Around 70 tillable acres in a single county, priced near…
Nothing under contract yet, still reading. The plan is a triplex where I live in one unit and rent the other two, because that's the version of this that gets me residential finan…
Two owners I have been talking to this month landed on opposite answers to the same question, and I cannot decide which one I would follow. Both have small mixed-use buildings, ap…
I've got a 64 bed value-add under review at a regional public school in a rural county. Current enrollment is roughly flat over five years, first-year headcount actually ticked up…
I've been going through notes and paper mostly, so this is my first look at a student housing offering, and the sponsor sent a 40 page deck where enrollment gets exactly one chart…
Pulled the terms of sale for a county I've been buying in and read the paragraph everybody scrolls past. If the sale is later set aside, or the certificate is voided for a defect…
Looking at two deals in the same mid-size downtown and they've forced a question I can't resolve cleanly. Deal A: 180-space surface lot, two blocks from a hospital campus. Trailin…
I'm one saved-up down payment away from starting this, and the first real fork is what kind of house to buy. Everything I've read says the whole point is that I get owner-occupant…
I'm mostly reading about notes so property paper is new to me, but a friend forwarded a sourcing agreement to see if I could follow it and one clause stopped me. It says the sourc…
I've been reading passive office offerings for about four months now, slowly, and something is bugging me. Almost all of them run a five year business plan. Buy at a discount to w…
I've got two houses I can realistically pursue in the same metro, forty minutes apart. The first is a build-to-rent unit in a new subdivision, everything under warranty, likely ca…
