I'd be happy to get you some rough terms to compare to other options that you have, but I also agree with Jay that you should be wary of just selling and loosing that equity that you've built up in the property.

Reason why is because FDIC Bankers "Do Not" charge points on traditional programs like primary homes, standard investment purchase and refinance, Second home/vacation homes.Lenders, Brokers all charge points to meet their Loan officer compensation plan (commission).

This is a key difference from traditional buyer agency, where the agent keeps this commission.3.

Pull out a spreadsheet and go through the tools everyone mentions to run some comparables and take note of photos, amenities. 

@Charles Kao I believe he means attorney & Title Services that are familiar with non traditional or creative Transfers or Sales of property that don't include Banks.

What I have seen in the research is to find a property you are interested in and compare to other comps in the same neighborhood.

 @Jordan Laney Asking what others pay for snow removal and comparing your yearly spend to past years is not productive.

Westchester, although one of the hottest markets, has a ton of upside with opportunities for both cash-flow and equity. 2-4 family properties in Westchester are the 2nd most affordable in the NYC Metropolitan area (next to Suffolk County) making it easier to find cashflow opportunities when compared to the boroughs and other suburbs like Nassau.A client of ours in Westchester recently purchased a < $800K 2-family with a detached 3-car garage which brings in additional rental income - from a local business owner with commercial vehicles.

Findlay is a real oppotunity beause you’ve got a combination of stable job sources, a decent population size, and often lower acquisition costs compared to bigger metros.About choosing an agent..

That's comparing apples to oranges.
