  maryjanel,
  
  Glad to meet you.
  
  I noticed that you have been asking for agreements and contracts, you need to be a little more specific.
  
  Do you want the ones that can get you sued because they do not comply with the state statutes in the state you live in?
  
  The first thing you need to learn is to do your due diligence on what is really required in your state to make your contracts and agreements legal in your state.
  
  If you are asking for this type of information it tells me that you have a long way to go in learning creative real estate investing.
  
  Please take the time to have any contract or agreement reviewed by a REI attorney before you start using them.
  
  Welcome on board this board, just some advice to get you started the proper way or you can go down that long lonesome highway.

  true.... but a weak contract is better than no contract at all.

  WillFalkiner,
  
  You get what you pay for.
  
  A weak contract may cost you dearly in the end.....what will no contract cost you?
  
  Take John's advise and do the right thing....have an attorney look over your paperwork....the $ you spend now may save you $$$$'s later along with the heart and headaches.
  
  Hope this helps,
  Clif

  amynewbie,
  
  John's contract, like any contract from a book/course, should be taken to your attorney for a professional LEGAL review. That way you're sure it's legal in your state.
  
  Even if it isn't, the attorney can reword it to make it legal for you. While John's a pretty good guy, even his opinion won't hold much weight in your local courthouse.
  
  Pay your dues (and your attorney). Don't try to shortcut this step. It's just part of the business. Even if you get on of those 'valid in XX state,' or 'valid in ALL states' contract, take it to your lawyer for review.

  Roger,
  
  You have never seen me operate in front of a Judge.
  
  However, I am the first one to say have your contract reviewed by professional.
  
  It is a one time investment and can save you problems, in my e-book I stress have the contract in the book reviewed by an attorney. No one needs the complaints and compliance division from their state calling them.
