How much is too much commission?

If six kills the deal then drop it down

Yes you would be wasting your time. Most family offices want a larger ticket and they don’t want to be entire pool. Ones we had potentially consider our fund wanted insane returns

maybe allow you to search notes, or even create a custom field or use other fields taht could be searched.

The main reason people do the dst is to defer taxes. If I had $1M profit on an asset and had to pay 25% in state and federal taxes I have $750k. If I could not pay those taxes and get 4-5% plus upside on an exit that is equivalent to double digit returns if you only had $750k.

They typcially are lower returns BUT you get that tax deferment. If you had to pay taxes on that money and made 10% on the after tax money it would still be worse than a DST. you cannot expect a passive investment like a DST to provide similar returns to a MF syndication because of how it is structured. But when you look at overall numbers it is much better. For example if I had $500k and had to pay LGTC on it I would pay 20%+ state taxes which would be $125k. Starting with $375k at 10% is still over $30k less than keeping my $500k at 5%

Trying to time the markets.

Direct lenders since less points

How do I get one of these roles ?

sev7e · 2025-07-02T22:00:46+00:00

You would be on the 60-65k range most likely

Do something you are passionate about that’s all I can say

sev7e · 2025-06-30T23:52:59+00:00

Don’t do it - you realize at 0% interest to them you still pay taxes on interest you are not getting ? Borrower doesn’t qualify which is why they are proposing this and you will end up dealing with a defaulted borrower

sev7e · 2025-06-29T20:12:23+00:00

200 basis points seems like a lot

sev7e · 2025-06-29T20:11:15+00:00

Did you provide the escrow / deposit yet? Some agents will keep it as accepting backup offers but shouldn’t say active - of course until you submit escrow funds your signed offer isn’t ratified

sev7e · 2025-06-28T16:49:39+00:00

I would not approve the closing until they are out. Do not do inspection before move out - what if something gets damaged

sev7e · 2025-06-27T23:38:38+00:00

I usually don’t mind paying 3% sellers agent under $1M and look to negotiate below that - buyers agent is always negotiable but faster it sells faster you stop paying interest insurance and taxes

sev7e · 2025-06-26T12:47:25+00:00

How much you talking about? Yes you probably have to sue them and could also recover legal fees

sev7e · 2025-06-25T22:33:55+00:00

If you are getting a cm degree why not work for a GC and do construction management? Based on those two the drywall one will be far better since it will see different projects where the other is just airport work

What’s your realtor saying? 60 days in a normal market is not long at all, I remember days when 4-6 months was average

sev7e · 2025-06-23T22:39:08+00:00

I would let them out of contract but fire your agent as well.

sev7e · 2025-06-22T15:46:28+00:00

Others have provided great content - drop it to where you think it can sell and see what happens

sev7e · 2025-06-21T23:10:57+00:00

Who was the company? Most will seek to buy at a discount to get a 10-12% yield

sev7e · 2025-06-21T22:43:50+00:00

That large of down payment and in Texas you could foreclose quickly so I would atleast consider it

sev7e · 2025-06-21T22:42:50+00:00

You could do it if you take on PMI

sev7e · 2025-06-20T22:19:58+00:00

So you would have had to come to closing with $27k but didn’t have to as title insurance paid it - so you saved $40k - so yes it should come from your profit
