Happy to connect and share some additional experiences if that interests you.  

The Plus subscription would allow you to keep track of each property/project and produce reports for them individually in addition to keeping track of the entire business as a whole.  

I had a conversation with a Probate/Estate lawyer and he suggested the following but what he said doesn't quite add up to what I have read so I want to see if I am just not understanding or if I am getting bad gouge.Advice was to create WY LLC that owns all properties, that is then "owned" by a land trust for additional anonymity, that the beneficiary is a regular Trust that owns everything else in my name.

Architecture did a design and well respected contractor estimated the buildout of 4 plex would be an additional ~800k for total project cost of ~1M. it would be ~1.2M for the 7 plex.  

I was told I can pay $3k to remove the part of the tree that's hanging over the garage (in addition to the $3k deductible I'm already paying) or I can take the next door neighbor to civil court because the tree over the garage is actually dangerous to the tenant who lives there. 

Luckily this was a super cheap property so I could afford the additional down payment.

Interesting addition when you suggest that builders are the only ones to reap any profits. 

A heloc can "never" be used as an "Asset" or Liquid reserve both required when you purchase additional rental properties. 

Additionally, I normally build in at least 7% of the purchase price going towards transaction costs when selling a property.

If there is no agreement signed and this person is just someone listed from the broker's database, I do not believe it is acceptable for the broker to collect a split in addition to the house split.If you are to consider negotiating this additional split, there is a lot to take into account here... what is the % of business that you generate on your own vs. how much your broker contributes?
