@Beata Williams statistically your brokerage has little to do with why a client chooses to wrk with you.Your brokerage should provide you with all the tools and training you need and at the best split/cap.

Be prepared to carry a negative cash flow for some time until rents rise sufficiently to cover the neg.

South of 8 mile is going to be a higher ROI, but statistically come with higher maintenance and more effort to manage.We aren't really allowed to self promote on here, so I would love to connect and chat with you more!

Wondering if you could share any feedback positive or negative before I proceed with them!

This one is one great day, but overall, the statistics on trading are very dismal.

Also, disregard all the negative Nancy’s that will either tell you horror stories about bad tenants from their friends’ rentals or that real estate is a bad investment..that we’re in a housing bubble etc.

Lately though normally the older generation 50 and above have been very negative about investing in real estate because of the future market crash that they say is “very soon”.

As for your credit score, no you backing out now and them keeping your deposit would likely be the end of everything and you shouldn't anticipate any negative effects to your credit score.

You should generally get under 4% for 30 year fixed with 20% down, unless there are other negatives on your credit report or other contributing factors like DTI
