It does have a desk fee of $85/month, but all offices are virtual, so you can speak with a broker at anytime if you need assistance.it’s also worth noting that eXp is a global brokerage, so should you decide to get licensed in other states/countries, you would not need to go to another brokerage. eXp has a commercial division that is growing rapidly and has a strong community that could be useful for you and your business.

I will definitely start going to many more networking events here in Grand Rapids.

Do not get me wrong, there is a STRONG case to be made to preserve the culture and not push out neighborhood natives with increasing taxes that accompany gentrification as the land values rapidly go up.

I'm located in the Bay Area, and we recently purchased a property very near BART, which is the rapid-transit in the area.

I have a 1.35 acre lot with an old 3/2 trailer on it in a rapidly growing part of south GA with a motivated seller.

If everyone was required to have a Health Savings Account from birth, with a major medical policy, insurers were allowed to sell in all states, and we had high risk pools, the problems would go away very rapidly.      

I live and invest in the Cedar Rapids market.  

The down payment for the first property is $400,000 x 25% = $100,000.Because you purchased in a location with rapid appreciation, the market value rises rapidly.

Prices and rents only rise rapidly if there is sustained and significant population growth.

@Hans .Suljic Indianapolis and Grand Rapids might be some good markets to look at.
