Matt,

The company you mentioned, Metropole, they are a Buyer’s agent. So does that mean they charge the buyer for transacting the deal? or they charge the buyer for a consulting service? Do you have any idea how much they charge? I am also assuming this is on top on the commission the sales agent would be getting from the sale of the…[Read more]

Lloyd,

I agree with your sentiments. I have set up trusts with corporate trustee and a beneficiary structure which includes family, companies.

Also It would be better to not purchase a property that does not have secure cash flow enough to support itself.

As the portfolio grows it important to create buffers that correlate to volatility in…[Read more]

Richard,
