I’ve got a late fee enforced to try and disincentivize late payments.

Make sure you know what it's like to be an Agent before you spend thousands of dollars on MLS fees etc.. 

Hey Chris, If your agent is only using RCM, they might not be familiar with platforms like Costar or LoopNet (which honestly should not be the case), or they simply may not have the budget to cover the upfront listing fees, which can get pricey.I’d circle back with them, address the plausible elephant in the room, and try to figure out a game plan to get your property on these other platforms.

I am a fee attorney for Fidelity and found this the best solution.1.

The dollar-peso exchange rate benefited us with respect to fees, so we have some extra class A shares we can use as collateral. 

I don't charge security deposit or move in fee nor do I care about credit. 

Keep in mind the brokerage that just offers low desk fees and a nice office doesn't have a direct correlation to the training you will receive and value you will get for the cap you are paying.

If he really wants to "roll up his sleeves", he can scout properties in your community (or on the internet) and get paid a "commission" if he finds one of your investor-friends in Omaha to buy it (aka, acquisition fee/finder's fee).

I finally sold it for a small fraction of what I paid for it, but I was out from under the HOA fees and taxes which at about $1,700. per year, which is a sizeable sum for me, and as we know, these fees increase every year.Bottom line is, DO NOT purchase property there for an investment. 

i guess you could call them, like a newborn, kid college fees something of that nature.I made the mistake of not looking into that before i bought my duplex, because don't forget that with homeownership/landlord comes recurring expenses on that property,and you're life surprise expenses somehow never stop coming lol, so i'd make sure to put money aside for that and not sacrifice it for the sake of profit.
