If you just flat aren't comfortable with debt, then that's one thing, but I don't get the impression that's necessarily the case.

And for sure when your  an LP and your GP goes belly up not much you can do although I am sure lawsuits will be flying from other investors towards the GPs thats a given.

We have a single flat fee of $1,500 for all of our fees, including the appraisal/valuation.

So now I'm thinking flats or small houses in towns that would be attractive to multiple markets (potentially expats, tourists, students, locals).1. 

His stuff works if you work it, which is where most people fall flat.  

If the consensus is that they are flat or higher, properties will be priced accordingly. 

I never go off of a flat percentage on anything, I analyze the costs to get to a specific return I target and analyze the risk that is involved. 70% may be an initial metric to see if it is even worth pursuing, but every deal should be evaluated independently based on costs, time and risk involved.

@Deirdre Lizio see a lot of competiting PMCs start with a pledge of doing it better than "what's out there".Always interesting to revisit them 3-5 years later - after they've experienced the reality of challenging tenants AND owners.Look no further than Evernest: they started out with flat fee management at $99/month and promises of better & fairer service & pricing.Now they're at 10%, capped at $199/month - wonder what changed?

There are also companies that will do it for $100-300 flat fee or $30-50/yr.

Thus, I'd expect something like the following for the next three years for US rents: 1) 2025 will not see much national rent growth as we continue to deliver so much supply that prices remain largely flat.
