But it’s cheaper than the points and flat lender fees on amortgage, and you get to use the same credit lines over and over again for your flips or BRRRRproperties.

I was wondering if I can find and partner with local agents for the help on this.What I am looking for is:A) Access MLS APIB) Get property data based on MLS IDI am willing to pay for temp access in a format with a flat fee of a mix of percentage and flat fee of grunt labor of filtering through the MLS (as an assistant).Please let me know if you would like to help out and interest in it.

Of course I would rather be on a flat fee pricing model like Pricelabs and since I want to be like @Luke Carl (aka Yoda) when I grow up, might try Pricelabs at some point.

Also, row homes are a little less desirable in general and will have a lower resale value.If you are using fha it wouldn't meet the loan limits for 2 flat - $471,000, but you aren't way far off. 

Bake the laundry into the rental price.

were actually closing today on our first rental property in Indiana not too far from my house and next I will be looking for a multi family in Wisconsin probably found some areas there that I see have potential and the prices on 4 and 5 flats are super reasonable and the job and population numbers are on the rise. 

The only real advantage would be to cash in on buyer's commission and avoid the seller listing fee, however, most brokers still charge a flat fee minimum for transactions.

Two weeks ago water was getting into the ground unit of my 3 flat and I happen to live in this unit.

I was also a licensed realtor in FL at one point so am familiar with the business from that aspect, but still have so much to learn as I move forward as an investor.  

Get a flat rate MLS listing service and you should be ok depending on how COVID is affecting your market now and going forward.If you're not comfortable with doing the above, hand it over to a realtor (one who knows their stuff) and let them do their thing.
