I think my fees are high until I shop around and then I am thankful. 

PM's will keep all late fees, they hold the security deposits so they collect all the interest on security deposits. 

@Christopher Alley we use a lot of private money in the rehab business, and I have never paid any up front fees. 

We got lucky the county picked up the waste dump pickup and dump fees.

Assign a contract: This is where you get a property under contract and you "fee" that you collect at closing is for giving the end buyer the rights to execute on the contract.

The deal sounded good at the beginning but thought it included his fee and it didn't so he's tacking on his 20% on every bill. 

I had to have an awkward conversation with my favorite realtor when their broker suggested everyone had to pay a $700 “document fee” on every sale.

Quote from @Sami Gren: I start by making the original tenant fill out a form requesting to add a new renter, and they pay me a $50 processing fee (I charge a $50 fee any time I make changes to an existing lease). 

If anything explain that there is a fee on top of a lifetime charge (which on its own is kind of weird), but okay. 

@Orlando Johnson- If you were going with 6% real estate agent fees the $12,500 number is incorrect.
