I’m currently diving into the real estate world, focusing on finding off market deals and distressed properties as a bird dog.

Quote from @Hazel Anderson: Hello, bigger pockets pros, We have a rental property in Columbus and we are looking for a contractor who can replace the existing basement window with a standard sized window.

The turn key property is on a tiny island in the Chesapeake Bay in Maryland called Smith Island.

Simon, my investment group does lots of properties in Pitt. 

But others investors with different risk tolerances, goals and financial situations invest in the platform.2) I feel directly owned properties are great because they give me maximum control and the ability to tweak them exactly how I want.

Because of the interest rate of the original VA loan, the cash flow of this property isn't as high as our other one.

Would a cash out refi be under commercial terms since the property(s) are under LLC?

What are other high net worth individuals paying in broker commissions these days, for high value properties?  

Option 1: Lower Down, Higher Rate (10-15 Year Term)For the Seller: Steady cash flow, better return than banks/CDs, avoids capital gains hit all at once.For You (Buyer): Lower upfront cash, keeps more liquidity for operations, long-term financing stability.Offer Price: $2.2M (Full Asking Price)Down Payment: $220,000 (10%)Loan Amount: $1,980,000Interest Rate: 8% FixedAmortization: 25 YearsTerm: 10-15 Years (Negotiable)Monthly Payment: ~$14,846 (P&I on 25-year am.)Why It Works for the Seller:They get a consistent $14,846/month income instead of a lump sum that could trigger taxes.8% return is way better than typical bank investments.Avoids broker fees (~$100K savings).No property management headaches—just collects checks.

Sad to say, but i let this property go.
