I have a client looking to begin building Build-to-rent properties and is interested in the Western Oregon Market——Looking to establish a few connections- IE GC, Architect etc.

We are using a property management company that  my girlfriends mom (an agent in that area) has had clients work with in several occasions and highly recommend!

The problem is it's very easy to manipulate by changing the proforma variables and I always recommend first time clients instead analyze deals by market rents to purchase price ratio. 

hey guys,I'm looking to buy a duplex or triplex for some clients looking to move.

If you are showing homes to clients, suggest having an I-Pad with the ability to access the MLS on the road.  

2)  How will I not be competing head to head for the same business and potentially lose out on new business due to prior contact (call that may not have lead to anything), and 3) How much flexibility do I have to negotiate deal commissions with clients?
