Hello BP,
I would like to ask for your opinion on advantages or disadvantages of Compass.
Thank you. 

Hello all,I've been noticing a big trend on being a "tech-enabled real estate brokerage" and big companies like Redfin and Compass are capitalizing on that notion.

In general, from my experience mom and pop landlords have historically kept rents very low for many reasons (convenience, compassion, not having a desire to make money).

It's important to have a crystal-clear understanding of your goals because they will serve as a compass when it comes to making investment choices.2. 

@Victor Steffen regarding brokerage: Compass opened in Austin recently.

Compass property management has been really affordable and responsive.

I have very little compassion for tenants who don't pay the rent.Anyway, she got her tax return and now wants to pay all that is owed plus next months rent.

Kyle Buterbaugh Traditional financing - non owner occupied will likely require 25% down with a balloon (5-10years) So you are looking around 14k as a round number.Seller financing may have compassion and require a lower down payment up front and will likely have a higher interest rate with balloon.

It is called the Milwaukee Compass project.

A couple of my key take-a-ways:Ethics: Having a moral compass to guide you makes for great investors.
