They can provide you with insights and access to deals that might not be widely advertised.

This all came from a computer, printer and Internet access that was my startup cost never thought about it that way before, but yeah, thanks for sharing.

If I was doing $5M a year or more then I would potential be looking at it differently.I want to note I have had people who prefer private lending over traditional because they do not want to go through the hassle of traditional and are ok paying more for ease of access/dealing with a lender.

That said, the block itself is great, and my agent has included drone photos to showcase the quality of the area.

But my point is that I can absolutely access the equity if I were to sell.

This will vary property by property and area by area, but in area not only do you have all the city/county level planning: access, traffic counts, density requirements, unit counts for school districts, sewer capacity, etc, but you also have neighborhood councils which will have additional level of say in final design, scale, unit counts, uses, etc.  

I have access into a volume of on-market and OFF-market actions the novice does not.

When asked why their properties don't cash flow in any rental calculator, the answer is: "people who use these rental calculators don't get the kind of deals we give you" 4, Re rent comps...I looked at Zillow, and another tool, and if I simply rely on Zillow, rents are typically lower and there are properties in the same few blocks on the market for 40+ days.

Secondly, I would be paying for access to their Stellar MLS which I already have access to through Georgia.

I am a broker with access to over 220+ lenders so know we can find lending partners to fit your situation.
