Not necessarily a scam, maybe someone trying to save fees. 

I manage MTRs in NC and SC - our SC properties still cover their costs and then some in the MTR space even after my management fees.

I charged fees for other violations as well but the fees aren't enforceable here in Wisconsin because the lease did not explicitly state what they would be in advance.

I agree with the others here that say you need to have some skin in the game, if you are going to live there yourself, get an FHA loan rather than owner financing, you can get a 3.5% down loan, personally I do not love these as they require  PMI which is an additional expense, and you also need  bring additional funds for closing at least for taxes, title, attorney and transfer fees . borrowing from anyone else for the down payment, to include a personal loan from the bank is not a good idea, those again will be higher int. rate.

Additionally, the presence of POHs vs TOHs introduces further operational complexities and elevates overall costs due to increased maintenance and management responsibilities.However, without detailed information regarding the specific septic system configuration (gravity, pressure distribution, mound, cluster, etc.) as well as the system's age, historical performance, and required maintenance frequency, it is challenging to derive a precise expense ratio.

I was delighted with their service and be happy to do a introduction for you to my contact manager (I am not associated with the company nor do I receive a referral fee).No business cards but line of credit yes.Revolving LOC? 

It's just annoying trying to keep track of payments when they keep switching companies and having to pay these fees. 

They also know about real estate so less likely to charge you extra fees to get an appraisal or BPO because they can estimate the value themselves.

However, I read some bad reviews about them. 10% service fee from landlord, plus 8% from tenants.
