This hyperlink takes u to an email I sent Michael last evening. Should u not wish for me to participate going forward for whatever reason then I would want no less than $1.725 million net with escrow to close 15 days from today, and for u to place into escrow no less than a $200K non-refundable deposit, i.e. I trust that Michael has advised u of the due diligence he did this weekend which should help u “cut to the chase” that much quicker.

Please read this communication very carefully, i.e. if u come back with something along the following lines, “I and my clients r the richest people in the world but we have to enjoy what we do and what we do means being able to feed my cat and for that I would expect u to contribute a total of one nickel out of the $1.725 million, blah blah” [sic] then don’t expect a response, rest assured tho, I will use whatever u communicate to me, again assuming I consider it gobbledygook to help sell my book, Manager Minute One, that we should all be our own managers from minute one.

Furthermore Michael has all the information in terms of rent roll on the 6 units as well as a hyperlink that deals with my having got the White Slip back in 1994 which has been updated to mention little of what in G-D’s name would u, a sophisticated real estate person be asking me “sumthing” [sic] like “CAP rat” [sic], r u suggesting that I also throw in a Texas Instrument 12C calculator at the close of escrow?

BTW the person who helped me write Perfect Storm II which u can access in the “cut to the chase” hyperlink invented the notebook computer while an engineer at Texas Instrument before making the second mistake of his career by not joining up with the founders of Compaq Computer who walked away with a couple of billion dollars each but then Newell Starks who is now in my cross hairs got with the program and went to business school joining up later with Citicorp Venture Corporation the most successful leverage buyout firm in the history of Wall Street, it not so much that Newell owes me $40K secured in Sterling Holding Company stock, a fronting company for CVC or the fact that he failed to take me up on a double or quits bet had my Client Partner Wife Marie Dion purchased her own Lear Jet within a 12 month window but rather the fact that CVC chose to bring Newell who retired at age 40 out of retirement to execute almost flawlessly one of the most “management friendly” i.e. “shareholder hostile” takeovers only a genius financial engineer like Newell could ever dream possible, my impressing upon Michael that I only want to deal with sophisticated investors, get my drift?  

Time is of the essence.

Mr. Gevisser,

I received information from my client Michael D that you may be interested in selling your 8 unit building.  I have contacted clients of mine that are builders in Santa Monica who may be willing to cash you out of the property if the numbers made sense to them.  Could you please contact me with infomation on purchase price, rents for each unit, CAP Rate and other pertinent information.  Also, would you be willing to sign a one time showing agreement with me to show and sell the property and what commission would you be willing to pay for procuring a buyer for this piece of Real Estate.  You can contact me through my assistant's e-mail Tony@All and we will respond quickly.  I look forward to working with you.

Best Regards

My...
