REIAs are a business and they need guest speakers who 95% of the time have something or service to sell.. informal meetups are a waste of time in my mind hate them.. boring.

I checked comps and all the rest.

if anything then I would set a flat fee to pay them for their service and then if you do find a property that offers buyers agents money, in which almost all I have seen still do...then I would have the title company back out the amount you decided on and the agent gets the remainder of the amount of commission that's left over. 

The property would be a multi family that me and my wife would live in one unit and rent out the rest.

The top unit and rest of the townhouse is completely unliveable without renovation, the only liveable spaces are the two studio apartments that the tenants live in.

In my opinion the best way to house hack is to purchase a multifamily where you can live in one unit while renting out the rest.

Yes the biggest issue was they grew way too fast and he set up an entire servicing company to handle all of their deals.

In a perfect situation, the payment will still be delayed (even if by hours) using this additional system.And secondly, many of these vendors have "clawback" provisions where, in their terms of service, you give them permission to go back into your account - even weeks after the fact - and reverse a deposit that was made by your tenant.My system is simple, allows for tenants to pay through multiple means, and does not cost me anything extra.

You're probably overwhelmed with questions but rest assured you came to the right place.

Ensure the rents and expenses support the debt service and provide solid cash flow after covering the assumable loan, seller carry payments, and operating costs.Occupancy & Rent Roll: What’s the current occupancy rate?
