Would be curious to know why they longer display it that way, because I did find it helpful to see where I fit in the distribution. 

The best I understand it commissions will no longer be displayed on the MLS and buyers representation agreements will be required along with a compensation disclosure that everyone signs showing what the buyers broker will make.Realtors aren't going anywhere as the home buying process is not simple and easy.

Thus you may do well to focus on bordering towns, such as Old Fort, Mars Hill, Waynesville, Brevard, etc.Hope this helps.

The border income that you listed is only required when purchasing a primary residence, you can't use the roommate tenants , even with existing leases to help qualify for the mortgage.If you are buying it as a investment property, you just need to record it on your tax return for 2024 tax return and in 2025, when you file your taxes, you will be able to count it positively for your debt to income ratio.

They have a database that displays all active chapters as well as the contact information for chapter members that you could try to reach out too for more information. https://nationalreia.org/find-a-reia/

And his assistant controls what and when a listing would be displayed on his linkedin platform...

Cross Border finance companies (If anyone wants to go this route I know the 3 largest in the area) Hope this helps! 

Investing in a bordering city is a good idea because of that if you can find a deal where the numbers will work for you.

Kansas is unfortunately... the sold home prices don't show up say like our bordering states colorado they even show up on zillow etc.

And from that data base we ONLY direct mailed those we could not get on the phone.. in those days we had to use the reverse directory.. so it was very laborious.. it took over a year to gather 10k leads from the OR CA border to Just south of Tacoma WA..
