Not that they'll do anything, but it should make the management company think twice about next time they try to rip off an absentee landlord, a second similar complaint with the NAR would draw attention.

To have access to the MLS you'll also be joining the NAR   as a Realtor, so you will have additional fees to pay.

There are a ton of surveys from Zillow, NAR and others that when you combine them show an average equity value increase of $4/watt - so a $10kW system adds by that average $40K of value.

However, RPR (a resource available to agents through our NAR membership) offers a more extensive Investment Report that in essence "forecasts" projects their cashflow/profits (kind-of like an amortization schedule in reverse!!)

I'm all for the free market setting up associations (like NAR / Realtor) to explain the benefits of credentials.

I pulled this from the NAR website regarding our discussion. 

Worst case, budget about $25 per every 3 hours of courses)- NAR costs (some brokerages may require you to become a "REALTOR(tm)" and there are costs associated with this; our brokerage doesn't require it so we aren't REALTORS(tm)In addition, there are costs associated with the tools you'll need to actually sell houses (signage, electronic lockboxes, etc), but those aren't needed if you are just buying and not selling.Now, some brokers will require "office hours" where you'll have to be in the office to answer phones, some will require minimum number of deals per year, some will take up to 40% of your commission, etc.

(https://www.nar.realtor/newsroom/nar-identifies-10-markets-expected-to-outperform-over-the-next-three-to-five-years) It's tough, I don't know if $100 per month is going to be worth tying up your equity. 

Plus... a member of NAR and Local Board Of Realtors, have a Broker, E&O insurance, A supra E-key lock box account to practice Real Estate, Each Brokerage has its fee's and they will differ.In NE,  I can not adverise a 'off market Listing/Pocket listing"  more then 48 hours before placing it on the MLS.

Bill, are there NAR Library's in every county?
