we can do it not rented but rate will be significantly higher. easier and more cost effective to rent it. unless the bridge money needs to be paid back asap or you need the funds back to buy more, then a cost analysis needs to be done. personally id get it rented at market rent or a touch below if time is a factor. 

Thanks for your time!

The idea is to not "wake sleeping dogs" and while at the same time not having issue on my next purchase. 

If so, is that recommended for a first-time buyer?  

Hello all, This is my first time posting on the here.

I know it's "all negotiable," what everyone says, but I also hear that most of the time it's standard 6% (3+3 paid by seller).Generally interested in how that ruling may be starting to affect attitudes on the ground or actual commissions in deals.

Pay attention to realtors who are wanting to provide value and provide resources and make time for your inquiries without ever expecting anything from you in return.

Those should not need attention (in a perfect world) for some time. 

Could you kindly let me know when would be a convenient time for us to schedule a call to discuss further?

@Ella Marie, I can't speak on behalf of your market, but in my respective market, competition is tough, and the successful fix-and-flip vendors are often full-time operating businesses.
