Owners mistakenly ASSUME all PMCs offer the exact SAME SERVICES and PERFORM those services EXACTLY THE SAME WAY, so price is the only differentiator – and they often select the first PMC they call!

Does any of your competition offer it all? 

However, I noticed that as a Costco member, they also offer HVAC services, including the same product line (Lennox), along with a 10% Costco Shop Card if you go through them.Has anyone here used Costco for their HVAC needs?

It was held by the previous owner for a very long time, so I wouldn't be surprised if some basic facts about the house are incorrect.I was making an offer on a house a couple years ago and discovered that the owner was paying taxes on an additional house that was on the neighbors lot and didn't know it!

Here are my responses to your questions1) Not my area of expertise, but the numbers on this are very strong2) I'd generally lean towards building the CFM, but strategically selling some properties when someone gives you a offer you can't refuse.3) Most HMLs would lend you 75%-85% of your purchases prices plus up to 100% of the rehab costs (though some HMLs like to see the rehab costs at or below the purchase price).

So, not really passive.Investing in rReal estate offers a lot more control than investing in stocks, but it also requires an investment of time to do well.
