Have you considered a flat fee MLS listing as a way to gauge interest and possibly sell?

Quote from @Patrick M Nichols: Cogo is a total scam... lots of fees on the front end.

However, if that effort fails, the local agent is equally liable – criminally and civilly – for any fees, fines, etc. associated with the property." 

That fee is based on the amount of work completed but is somewhere between $150-$400 typically.As far as the 10% fee charged during the first month that we lease a property, you are correct that is a part of our fee structure. 

A follow up question I now have would be do you think its smarter to completely pay off the first property before buying a new property or to keep going out and buying new properties once i have enough saved up for the down payment along with extra fees?

For every day after the 30-days, the permit fee is reduced by 10% of the permit fee.  

Eventually, I realized that if I kept waiting until tax time to organize my books, I would never escape the stress (and extra CPA fees).

Late Payment Penalty: A late payment fee of 5% of the overdue amount will apply if payments are more than 10 days late.3.

The legal fees and filing fees for the Reg D package average about $10,000 or so.  

I hope to use private capital to fund the entry fees in second position.
