This can be accomplished through genuinely getting to know the investors and having them complete an investor qualification questionnaire.Depending on the amount available from the 1031 some syndicators would entertain a Tenants In Common (TIC) partner; this includes non-accredited/sophisticated investors.

This gives your more favorable mortgage terms and rates, including lower down payment possibilities.

The mid-range plan covers a lot and was right around $500.I negotiated to have it included for one of my buyer client, who has had two appliances replaced in the first year.I think it gives buyers confidence, eliminating one of the many obstacles for nervous buyers. 

But that's not included in the 80k Reno.

I have mailed them my personal documents, including the SSN, because I didn't want to provide my personal information through the email and they did not offer any safer option for me. 

I would draft my own contract or have my attorney draft the contract or modify the one provided by the contractor to include the following:Detailed scope of work, start date and completion date with penalties for exceeding the completion date without prior written permission.

Notable examples of folks being burned buying company stock at a discount include, but limited to, Enron, Worldcom, Lehman Brothers, GM and a whole host of other companies.Having worked in finance for a long time, I can tell you that no company is doing you a favor by letting you buy their stock (discounted or otherwise).

My lease specifically states that appliances are not included in the rent and are there for convenience.

If my investor is flipping the property I always make sure I include the resale costs in order to have a more accurate bottom line number.We also always add 5k to 10k for misc repairs just in case. 

However, as an investor, I would purchase without any contingencies (yes, including waiving inspections and mortgage clauses) and therefore less muss and fuss for the owner.
