I stopped paying the 1%+ and my principal finally started to decrease, significantly.My suggestion is that you ask brokers for recommendations that are in the area where you are purchasing your property and keep calling banks and save thousands of dollars you can use to invest for your next purchase.Two things:  Your broker wasn't getting rich on a 1% commission and the 1% you paid to your broker didn't keep your principal from decreasing; it was probably the cash out he got you (and at a higher LTV than the bank would lend you I might add).Banks and brokers each have a place in the lending arena.Stephanie

Low-dollar property (sub $200k). 6-unit multifamily.

Annually, I manage multimillion dollar construction projects and operations of a large scale facility.

If you put those same dollars to investment property you get to write it all off.

More specifically, we both come across tens of thousands of dollars within the same 3 month stretches due to what we do for work. 

There is almost no understanding CPM- several multimillion dollar coliving start-ups have FAILED b/c they saw the demand for coliving w/out seeing the need for a respective form of property management (see HubHaus, Common, Starling, etc). 

Quote from @Hector Espinosaor Espinosa: Quote from @Jared Smith: I would tell myself to figure out how to buy it if it is close to making sense and don't squabble over an extra couple thousand dollars that you are only paying 20-30% of at close anyways.
