good morning guys, I am interested in purchasing a member with COSTAR but they are charging almost 1,000 dollars a month to use their services.

Firstly, thank you for your service and for reaching out to the community for insights on your real estate investment plans.

My area has a strong economy, high rental rates, and a very large military and civil service presence.

Also 4th quarter of last year Packwood and county officially did discuss potentially regulating STR's by either limiting numbers or adding a tax to cover increases in local services that are needed.

His average contract value is around 15-20k and his profit margins on these jobs are roughly 50%.I don't have an agency or any sort of business that provides this service.
