As an analytics professional I know it's pretty much impossible to predict any economic event with precision. 

Right on @Mike Buckley--precisely what's happening down here.  60% of all sales in Monroe County (Florida Keys) are international cash buys.  

I also realize it's impossible to offer a precise answer as my tax situation is unique.I have a 401k from a previous employer.

So first off, prove you are serious.After that, tell them as precisely as possible what you are looking for and then ask if they can help you with that.  

@Miko DimagibaThis is precisely why I started investing in the US about 4 years ago.  

This will have an impact on you as an investor, since you must do everything precisely by the book, dot your i's, and cross your t's - if you screw up, you risk far more severe penalties than an unlicensed person who makes the same goof.

Around here, it's $500.00.USDA has about (and perhaps precisely) the same property standards as FHA - no peeling paint, loose railings, cracked glass, crumbly cement, etc.  

Its more precise, the level of granular detail you can get.. bls  however shows what I see as 2016s wage level for the LA metro area which isn't materially different at: $51,283.

My prior loans have been with conventional financing (VA, FHA and conventional to be more precise) but I recently set up an LLC to buy properties in and wanted to see if anyone had recommendations for portfolio/commercial lenders in the area?

So as to avoid price-fixing charges, I'm looking for an average range - not a precise number, or a suggestion as to what all agents should charge.
