Here in CA, if you are the owner on title (or person with authority of the entity on title), you may act as owner builder and no GC licenseing is required, however, you must also agree to either perform the work yourself, hire licensed subs, and/or maintain workers compensation insurance.Years back, I performed my rehabs by beng the project manager myself and I hired subcontractors to perform the tasks needed.

Would love to hear everyone's opinion on this ruling.http://builditconcrete.com/cou...I thought this was the swimsuit against basically forcing the sellers that list (supposedly negotiable) to compensate any 'cooperating' buyers' representation/agent/brokerage. 

The bad tenants pay more than market rent to encourage them to find housing elsewhere and to compensate me for having to deal with them.Good luck

A fixed fee for them to provide the offer contract and consulting on what the various parts of the contract mean and the implications could provide peace of mind and everyone deserves to be compensated for their knowledge/expertise in a professional relationship. 

If the true up bill is a credit should it go to the owner for compensation for buying the solar system? 

Insisting on minimum returns ensures adequate compensation for my money and time as fix and flip is not passive by any means.As a finance guy what I prefer even more is IRR.

If he's managing the rentals so you can focus on this, then as a larger partnership you are sharing the management responsibility...so maybe a 70-30 or a 60-40 works...or 50-50 but your time is paid/compensated...there's really no right answer...

As a Non-Realtor (myself), if someone were to present you with off-market, highly promising HOT leads suitable for the MLS, what compensation structure would you consider to be fair, for the individual providing such valuable leads?

A manager of the LLC may or may not be compensated and certainly does not need to be a corporate trustee type, like a bank.

Any advice on how to compensate contractors/tradespeople to ensure that you get good people who do good work?
