For a good tenant that has paid on time and was keeping the place in good clean condition I probably would have just eaten the charge.

Our current manager is in Huntsville and it is becoming clear that we need someone more local to Cullman who can be on top of showing our listings and taking charge of maintenance and repairs as needs arise. 

It may sound nice to pay a 6% management fee but the extra fees can add up to be more than the other company that charges 10% with no additional fees.

Hi, Looking to buy Investment property,Single Family home in Richmond,Houston.Texas.

The predicament we are in is the property is not in the condition to charge that much for rent and we would also leave a lot of money in the deal once we refinance if we cannot get in there to fix it up.

There is usually extra charges on closing to pay for that service… but it is minimal.All the best!

Some try to charge an up front fee.

Generally they are not rolled into the loan, and it's more the level of fees (say the percentage) they charge rather than any "junk" fees or costs.

Freddie Mac only offers financing for single properties they do not offer 'Portfolio loans" meaning bundle them all into one loan.
