We are barely getting $2,500 for SFH homes with pools in nice areas of Cape Coral.

If they can barely pay 3 or 3 1/2% as a down payment for a home, how are they going to pay to have representation?

I paid the obnoxious neighbor back by running my fence all the way to the street and cutting our conjoined driveways in two, leaving him with barely any room to open his car door, since he had been parking on my property the whole time he was harassing our tenants.The lesson is of course to just get a survey done. 

Since you are just graduating college you may already realize that it's not what you know, but who you know (as a personal note, I had college friends that were barely passing their classes however they ended up with really good paying jobs due to "who they knew").

I'd rather have a few really great cash flowing properties than a dozen that barely cashflow.

After three years I sold it and barely made a profit.

I would think it'd be pretty simple to calculate his actual rent income based on the properties current conditions and explain that at best, the tenants in place stay for years to come, he continues doing the bare minimum, and his highest predicted income is x dollars, barring any emergency spending to keep the tenants happy.

We have had such a terrible time finding tenants that they changed us to a guaranteed rent model, which at least we are cash flow positive now, but barely.

Most folks barely have an advantage in their own market - let alone other markets. 

I did not bother trying it out as I have found that most of the products Realtor.com offers are pretty bare bones and don't offer enough customization for my needs, but it is worth listing here as an option.
