So I'm always able to offer a lower rates and fees and still make a decent living.

Here in Portland, there are a couple of different landlord groups/companies that offer pre-made forms.

If they are changing jobs, they need the new job first and you need to paychecks or offer letter with salary or maybe even the first two paychecks at the new job, depending on their level and income.Ask them about deposit and rent. 

I have an accepted offer on a luxury cabin.  

The current loans on the properties are with a bank that offers a flexible rate, which has recently increased.

With the new commission rules you can stay flexible with an offer of buyer agent commission, rather than having to commit to a certain percentage going to the buyer agent upfront. 

4) What you are offering?

he is offering to bump his offer from 12 and 15% to 14%and 17%.

Areas in PG County Maryland or West Virginia, for example, might offer better opportunities for cash flow with a smaller down payment.That said, if you’re willing to hold long-term, Northern VA can be a fantastic place to invest.

Found it on Zillow the first day it was listed, and got under contract same day (offered over asking).
