A PM company in California is required to have a broker officer, so either your dad can take on that role and put you in charge of the operations, or you can obtain your broker's license first.

Hi Tommie, My personal opinion is that she is charging a great deal of money for a self taught class.

The reality is the opposite - if it's not in writing then the PMC doesn't have to provide the service or can charge extra for it!

i charge a pet fee but generally don't require a deposit. 

They generally charge 1% for debt introductions and 3% (although I’ve seen up to 5%) for equity.

I take credit cards, too, which are a bit of a pain and still charge as much as Airbnb does.  

They have refunded my startup costs and have agreed to not charge our company anything until we get a deal.

ARK also charges a flat franchise tax on ARK LLC's and out of state LLC's every year, of $150.    

Move in and move out walkthroughs, Hoa violations, etc etc at no extra charge  They have connections with contractors that will show up within an hour any day of the week, charge a reasonable rate and have it fixed within a couple hours.

You can buy a countertop icemaker that’s faster and makes nicer ice for under $100.
