I see way way to many realtors go for flashy real estate companies that make no money or minimal money...or try to shop and shop around for the cheapest brokerage model that also probably doesn't make money or minimal money.   

For that kind of money, it was worth the extra time (3 additional months due to also getting the rehab costs included in the financing) and worth the occasional frustration which I minimized by personally staying on top of my file.

So what I do now is back-off including all the spreadsheets and things in the pitch book.

What can you do to plan for that and minimize the impact.

There are still ways to minimize your tax liability as long as you keep great books and reinstall the money back into the company with very little going into your pocket, except for a minimal amount, like a small salary.

I would definitely recommend that you get a park with minimal park-owned homes, near a super Walmart, in a town of at least 5,000 people.

I own another unit in this complex and the expenses have been quite minimal (maybe $1,500 over the 2 year period), so I figured I was being conservative with the ~$2,400 estimated annually in repairs.

I am a NYC resident and have a few investment properties in the Midwest.What I am looking to do is either have a meetup in the city or a discussion over the phone about exchanging contact information for real estate teams in other geographies around the country.I love my current team out where my properties are but I would also like to diversify a little more.Ideally I would like to find someone who invests out of state and has a real estate agent, a contractor and a property manager that they currently use and would be willing to recommend.I have tried a few times reaching out on this site in different geographies but I always seem to have discussions directly with those professionals and always feel like I am being pitched too.If anyone is interested please let me know.Thanks!

The roof cost are minimal in comparison but so is the profit margin.

Living together is cheaper for both as long as they both pitch in!
