They will often sell a loan at a discount if it's really bad.

She has "trade accounts" that get her discounts as all kinds of places for materials like flooring, fixtures, cabinetry, etc, so it nearly pays for itself.

Great question, let me explain:  Home Warranties offer discounted repair and replacement services for major systems and appliances.  

I assume you would either give them a discount on their rent or free rent for their service as a result. 

@Jason Sousa With my long term tenants I give them a discount on month 24 of their two year lease which is about half of the fee.

No discount. same as a free member.The perks page itself is the same as a free member. 

You've got to negotiate a 350k discount based on the scenario above.  

You may also be able to get a group discount if you do multiple individual loans (although I cannot speak for every lender on this).

It sounds like you bring a ton of value to the platform given your past experience.As far as where to start, that is difficult to answer without knowing more about what you're looking to accomplish and how hands on/off you intend on being with your investments.Turn-key companies have tremendous appeal given the fact that they target below-market value properties, handle property management and project management.

-What are the interest rates and how do discount points affect those rate?
