Please arrange to send me the same ASAP by emailing me or personally provide me in my apartment (by slipping it under my door)—-First time anyone ever ask for anything like that.

I see some coming and going on the MLS but they are going for very low yields. at this stage im looking for small MF up to 4 units but would consider up to say 10 units or some depend on the price and location. 

Could I have your phone or email address to arrange that sometime?

If you have enough income from your real estate business to arrange hiring your children as he suggests, I would do it.

It seems relatively easy to arrange a meeting or conference call but when it comes time to actually purchase a property I have found that many companies fall short in the communication department.

Hi Nick,Sales costs can include realtor fees (7% on the 1st 100k and 3% on each 100k after that - negotiable but this standard), staging costs, lawyer fees and so on. 

By no means do I believe my way is the best way since everyone has a unique situation (income, expenses, risk tolerance, lift stage, etc).  

You said you "will NOT" consider self management, so your answer is a PM arrangement.

@Jay Hinrichs in my experience they do give a range, but depending on the stage the property is in, meaning if the rehab is done, they may already be marketing it for rent, in which case they would have chosen a specific number from that range.
