Sellers, will decide, at their listing agreement whether they want to compensate a buyer agent or not and live with their consequence of whatever they choose.Buyers agents will now have to have that difficult discussion with their buyers about their compensation upfront and a buyer will more likely shop around for an agent and learn to negotiate what they will pay their agent if the seller is not offering or not offering enough.

If you have a trusted lender contact, then go ahead and get your pre-approval from them first and go shopping for agents afterwards.

If you ever have any tenant related questions or want to talk shop, don't hesitate to reach out.

@Matt Rosas  Hey thanks a lot Matt, after a great number of calls I eventually found the site and its a one stop shop!

I'd like to position myself as a one stop shop for home owners with distressed properties where I'd: 1) Provide a cash offer on there home - (with all the close fast, no hassle things)2) Help them list it or refer them to an agent in their area (keeping in mind that I would likely get a referral fee)3) Renovate their house for them then help them sell - I've got the team and know what renovations move the needleI'm beginning a period of what I hope to be substantial growth and I'd like to increase my flips/rentals at the same time so I'm wanting to ramp up my marketing.

Shop consistently with a locally owned store that is convenient for you to stop at often.

I'm just really frugal and really efficient in the way I plan, shop, and execute.  

You'll be selling in 60 days and then you'll have an additional 45 days to continue to shop for the replacement. 

I looked at the photos and the rooms look nice, but it is still a hotel room-a sitting area, sleeping area, small counter with a sink and coffee area and a separate bathroom. 

To be clear, it is totally ok to APPLY for more than one (shopping rates/lenders/brokers) however having multiple loans going at once (if you were doing a loan for your primary and one for a rental at the same time) requires disclosing on the application that you are getting another loan while your current loan is processing.
