Second Wants A BPO

I think the second wants a BPO because they may foreclose, pay off first and sell the house? Is there any other reason? Can second work a deal with the first to buy the note. 1st is about $103k, second about $25k. Will first let second pay it off for the simple payoff, or will first want all its fees, etc, on top?

    I recently worked on a shortsale where the sale date was 2 weeks away. I called the mitigator on the account and they informed me they would only postpone if i paid them $1,400. Obviously i refused to do so since there was no guarantee my shortsale would be accepted so i negotiated with them. I explained that i ws very interested in the propertyand could fax over a prequal letter. They eventually took $200 to postpone the sale. Granted it would be best to not pay anything, but it was a promising deal and i fealt 200 was reasonable.

    What are you contributing to the deal... and what would you consider your "fair share?"

    my contribution is finding the deal, and marketing it when its time to resell it, what i think is fair if he is gonna make a million little more little less i think 20% is fair

    Perhaps you should create an entity (LLC, trust, or?) to hold title to the property. This entity could be owned 80-20 between your partner and you, with profits split accordingly.

    Your partner would lend money to the entity at a reasonable interest rate as a 1st mortgage on the property, which should ease his mind.

    Will he agree to give you 20% of the profits?

    thanks Bargain76,
    but if you could explain more when you said" Your partner would lend money to the entity at a reasonable interest rate as a 1st mortgage on the property, which should ease his mind"

    thanks
