However, do that for the purpose of being able to charge a higher rent.

Sounds like you’re ready to take charge of your future!

@Jim Witten I'm an agent in Texas, and while this could potentially be a scam, it's more likely a legitimate cash offer.

We are happy to act as our own GC as we don't have the resources to pay for a GC who would charge 20-30% to do the job.Thanks in advance for your help and or ideas.

Many attorneys charge a consultation fee that will be credited to my bill if I continue to work with them but I don’t want to pay for various consultation fees unless I know for sure that I have contacted the correct attorney.

If the home has to meet special requirements (a common one is residential sprinklers), then you can potentially charge much higher rent and have higher cash flow on a long term lease to these operators.

I have heard of Propstream and I'm glad you think its well worth the monthly charge, this is something that I will consider moving forward. 

However, I’ve noticed additional charges that weren’t initially explained, and the rental payments are deposited into my account in multiple transactions each month.

There are also certain brokers that will often waive many of the upfront fees that are typically charged.

How do i make that third unit a legitimate one??
