* Peter M., NY

Hello.  I have two questions for Cherif.

1. Do you recommend always hiring an attorney to overlook & draft the Property LOI, Property PSA, Tenant LOI & Tenant Lease Contract before signing?  If not, which one of these do you recommend bringing an attorney into?
2. How much can we expect to calculate for major improvements to a vacant property?  I am currently looking at an old Pizza Hut that does NOT have a drive-thru.  I’m assuming any national tenant today is going to request one.  What is the general scope of work that would need to be done to have that completed, and how much $$?

At 1:06 pm EST, Cherif talks about “the Nibble.”

1. I am considering doing a residential deal outside of San Antonio with a contractor. I will be doing a joint venture agreement with him. Can you give me a few pointers on terms & conditions I should include outside a normal, straightforward JV agreement with my state? 
2. Can you give me some challenges I MAY run into that will keep me and my partner on the up & up? You always say, “the deal is great until it’s not or money is involved…” Looking for guidance from the man!

Hello Cherif,

Thank you for all your hard work and teaching. All the modules are mind-blowing. I have a question about building business credit.

1. If I want to build business credit, do I have to use a credit card for invoicing my business on PayPal? Or can I use cash from my savings account to invoice and pay my business through PayPal?

2. When is it best to build business credit? I currently do not have a business LLC now, so my question is should I open an LLC?

3. With business credit, can I purchase my first home?

(CRE DealPRO. She owns 4 rentals and wants to scale her RE business)

1. In some of your videos, you talk about “verifying that any inspections or title, etc.” is at the discretion of the Buyer.
2. When putting a medical condo reposition under contract, should I ensure that the inspection is at my discretion? Do I let the seller order the title report? I’m not sure I know what “title etc.” means exactly. 
3. Should I get title insurance and let the seller order the title report? Please advise.

*Alan C., CO

A prospect of mine in which my close friend, former colleague, and protege is now moving rapidly through the management rank at an Environmental Service company. There may be much more opportunities long term.

We spoke recently about another property in OK, and he has been given permission to remodel it and move his group into it. We spoke about a sale leaseback on this property, but there is much more potential with his Company. (Name is confidential)

The Company grew rapidly by acquisition over the last 30 yrs. And in doing so, it has collected a massive

Inventory of assets which constantly overwhelms the management. The management is industrial operations people skilled at hazardous waste clean-up and disposal, not CRE.

Please advise of any thoughts or ideas you may have.
