I advise my clients to think of house hacking as reducing the amount of money they personally pay for their housing every month.

I'm working with a client who's interested in a home that's currently used as an airbnb. 

Therefore, they might go for the agent who is willing to offer the lowest fee or go directly with the listing agent.For our deals, we will still be offering at least 2% to the buyer's agent because we would rather have a large pool of realtors bringing their clients. 

Most of our clients love it and last time I checked it's free.

I'm helping my clients do the same and we see deals that hit the 1% rule, are cash flowing, and have lots of appreciation potential due to the growing macroeconomics of the area.

I’m a longtime investor and Realtor from the DC metro area as well-  BP is a terrific resource to help you grow both your investment portfolio and better support your investor clients!

I have had this happen to clients of mine that worked with other lenders.

We have a lot of clients investing in East Ridge and North Redbank/South Hixson at the moment, with longer termed clients investing in Glass Farms and Alton Park for more of a long term appreciation play. 

I have a couple of HMLs who would give me 1/2 point if I refer clients to them.
