However, after talking to some loan professionals, it seems that there are always origination fees, appraisal fees etc.My question is, what fees should I expect to pay when opening up my first HELOC.  

i add a 15% commission (fee) to the booking and let guest pay the fee.

✅ No risk, no cash out of pocket✅ You work with, cooperate with, the homeowner instead of negotiating against them✅ No tenants and toilets✅ No maintenance or repairs✅ Short-term deals with sizeable assignment fees✅ Those fees can fund long-term strategies like buy-and-hold or fix-and-flipIf you’re an aspiring investor looking for a low-cash entry point into real estate, Cooperative Assignments are an effective strategy.  

As a landlord you might want to go with a cheaper "named perils" policy instead of a comprehensive homeowner policy.I guess the good news about your HOA fees is that you're not being hit with an assessment in addition to higher fees. 

I have heard so many people getting charged the "fees" for signing up for a free CD.

You definitely pay a fee, but you can get to deals quickly when first starting!

- Retainer/Deposit Fees – If you charge a retainer for mid-term stays, how much do you typically require?

They charge a (hefty) up-front fee, but they guarantee three rounds of financing over 12 months.

Fees kill.Make sure to do lots of interviews to see who is good.
