There is a flat annual fee based on portfolio value.

I'm interested in putting a granny flat on my property for STR.   

What I can say is that flat lots are in demand by the builders so those neighborhoods are likely to have the shortest construction cycle, comparatively speaking.

I'm thinking I should create a C Corporation instead of an LLC, since the corporate tax rate was lowered to a flat 21 percent rate this year since the passage  of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act on December 20, 2017 to avoid paying UBIT tax.

It's been a long process since making an offer 4 months ago in January, but I'm officially the owner of a soon to cashflow 2 flat with a garden unit, each as 2 bed 1 baths! 

There are very unique opportunities like working with government to build and provide housing, or create a business that renovates rentals for individuals with physical disabilities... flats with wider doorways, handicap accessible bathrooms, lower counter tops, etc. 

these are called low value assets and low balance loans.. its a widely known fact in the standard mortgage industry that these are the highest risk.it cost as much to foreclose on a 40k loan as a 400k loan.. there Is no money.. and those properties tend to be in less desirable areas or flat out war zones or worst area of a city..

If I find a fsbo, I loop my realtor in for a flat fee or % (just to handle on the back end, something like 2% or at least $1k). 

He needs to run a camera in the sewer clean-outs and check for bellies and roots and separations.

Most of the large ones seem to be limited to only the north side and I'm in need of a cleaning/repair and possibly replacement on a 2-flat near Cermak and California.
