Why pay off the mortgage early? 

@Parmesh P. there is no such TDA paying 7% or even 6% long term,5 years or longer.

If not, who do you believe the natural buyer is and why do you believe they will pay retail when they can replicate what you accomplished with any number of available properties on the market at any given time?

Steady pay, you can learn how to manage property and deal with people, and you'll be licensed to handle sales on the side.

You don't provide enough data to know.Every product is only worth what you are willing to pay for it. 

I LOVED getting a loan through DR Horton on a DR Horton build, that I had to pay for a DR Horton appraisal.

You don’t have to pay $20k+ to learn to broker loans. 

And particularly one that pays but a fraction of their real job. 

Less licensees paying into the pot means everyone's costs go up.

But this was an awesome opportunity for me because this is my first living situation where I will be on my own (and getting used to paying a rent/mortgage) but this will put my overall mortgage on a 400k house at roughly $2000 a month for the first year!
