My mortgage is $2300 + my HOA fee is 575 monthly (welcome to Hawaii).

When I said the All-in costs includes Closing costs that means “All Closing costs and fees “.  

In my case, I don't use an LLC for my real estate holdings. but use an LLC for an active business, an S Corp. with a DBA for 2 different businesses, and a C Corp, since closed, for real estate management.In my view, closing one and opening another would involve paperwork and fees, but keep your accounting much cleaner, as you probably agree.

Service fees have not slowed down my traffic and bookings.

That's a huge shift from their prior business model.That being said, if you need the 100% cash-to-close model to get the ball rolling, and you can find a deal that will net you $25k plus or more, this may be the only path (assuming you can pay the member fee and can't find any other HMLs that offer the services they do w/o a member fee).  

No Angie's list fees, no Home Advisor cattle calls.http://homeeonedemand.comSend PM with questions.

There are different thoughts on this, but some like to say just managing so they can blame th owner for rent increases, late fees, etc.  

The late filing fee is $195.00 per month per member.

Appraisal is more up to you, if you're confident in your offer, save the fee and skip the appraisal. 

If they want you to do the work deduct the cost from your purchase offer.This is BS that you should be paying their freight.
