The reason is they know flat fee they typically do nothing but place in MLS and have contact in for going direct to the seller.

Celebrate yourself for going now!

I think in the future more and more students will forgo college and instead turn to specific trades schools.  

A broker's responsibility is to provide the terms of your offer to the seller.As far as a discount on pricing for going hard day 1, no inspection, ect...it may vary deal by deal, however there are a ton of variables that need to be considered.

If they are good tenants, explain what the increase would be, and then offer to forgo the increase as a compromise.

For example, there's a website for the Albuquerque area where you put in your zip code and value and it will give you prop tax.Insurance - Consult REA or local (must be LOCAL) insurance agent for going rates.I also list on my spreadsheet whatever expenses the MLS listing (or other sources of Intell) tells me seller pays (if provided) - utilities, garbage, etc.

So before you blast me for going forward with this deal without an agent, first hear me out.

I've been wholesaling for going on 4 months and haven't closed 1 deal though I've had contracts and some of these projects closing could really help my business and portfolio out!

I am not sure if that equity is best used as a refi or heloc in buying our next rental or should I forgo both for traditional financing and hope to save the 25 percent or so first?

I’m a RN with steady income and have been employed for going on 5 years in my field.
